THE MULTIMILLION-COPY BESTSELLING QUEEN OF CLASSIC CRIME, DOROTHY L SAYERS

'Dorothy L. Sayers is one of our best detective story writers' Daily Telegraph

'One of crime fiction's most memorable detectives' The New York Times

'She brought to the detective novel originality, intelligence, energy and wit' P. D. James
_____________________________________________________________________

Lord Peter Wimsey and Chief Inspector Parker return with a case full of murders, red herrings, collusion and blackmail.

Agatha Dawson has been found dead. The post-mortem declares no foul play and the case is closed.

Something still doesn't seem right to Lord Peter Wimsey and he hires his own private investigator. . . to investigate.

There is no evidence of a crime, that is, until Bertha, Agatha's maid, is found dead in Epping Forest, with a £5 note leading back to a certain Mrs Forrest.

As events come to a head, can Wimsey catch the murderer before he himself becomes one of their victims?

'She has great fertility of invention, ingenuity and a wonderful eye for detail' Ruth Rendell

'A truly great storyteller' Minette Walters

'Part of the Golden Age of mystery writers working between the wars, Sayers is often credited as the most intelligent of them all' Guardian

'What elevated Sayers's debut to the upper ranks of the genre was the quality of her prose and the sense that her sleuth had more emotional heft than he displayed' The New York Times

Lord Peter should become one of the best known and best loved among the many amateur detectives of fiction' The New York Herald
