That may actually be the case, depending on how similar you believe the story to be to that of "And Then There Were None" and on your own view of morality.
In Agatha Christie's novel the killer is a retired judge who invites criminals who could not be charged, including himself, to a remote island where he kills each one of them, fakes his own death along the way, then kills himself, making the mystery unsolvable. In fact, the mystery is so unsolvable that it all had to be explained in an epilogue thru a message in a bottle left by the judge, just like the DiPP mystery had to be explained by the shrine maiden, who mentions in her journal that the blonde girl is the only one that survived. Of course, she didn't kill herself in the end, so DiPP is not a one-to-one retelling. The eight honest men are at least thieves, so the full extent of their moral characters could be left to interpretation.
