Whose Body‪?‬

Thipps, an architect, finds a dead body wearing nothing but a pair of pince-nez in the bath in his London flat. Inspector Sugg, the official investigator, believes the body to be that of the famous financier Sir Reuben Levy, who has disappeared from his bedroom in mysterious circumstances the night before. Leading the investigation into Sir Rueben's disappearance is a friend of Wimsey's, Inspector Charles Parker. It quickly becomes clear that the body in the bath is not that of Sir Rueben (though there is some superficial resemblance), and it appears that the cases may be unconnected. Wimsey joins Parker in his investigation...
