説明

Set in the intriguing world of early 20th-century Britain, this collection introduces readers to Lord Peter Wimsey, a charming and resourceful amateur detective. In "Whose Body?", the story unfolds with the shocking discovery of a body in a bathtub, throwing Wimsey into a web of mystery as he navigates the upper echelons of society and their hidden secrets.

Following this introduction, "Clouds of Witness" escalates the tension when Wimsey's own family becomes embroiled in scandal. A family tragedy demands not only his sharp intellect but also his unwavering loyalty as he seeks to clear a loved one’s name amidst dark accusations and societal pressure.

The third tale, "Unnatural Death," delves into the complexities of morality and the human condition as Wimsey confronts the unsettling nature of death in a world where appearances often deceive. His pursuit of truth leads him deeper into a labyrinth of lies and hidden motives, showcasing his distinctive character and wit.

Throughout this volume, Dorothy L. Sayers crafts a series of engaging narratives, mingling humor, romance, and layers of intrigue, all while allowing readers to experience the sophistication and societal nuances of the time. Lord Peter Wimsey emerges not just as a detective but as a quintessential figure in classic crime literature.
