What it is
For those not yet acquainted with Dorothy L. Sayers, unequalled among mystery writers, this collection of short stories is the perfect starting point. Amusing and absolutely appalling things happen on the way to the gallows when murder meets Lord Peter Wimsey and the delightful working-class sleuth Montague Egg. This sumptuous feast of criminal doings and undoings includes a vintage case of wine poisoning, a bizarre case of double identity, and a horrid incident of feline assassination that will tease the minds of cat-lovers everywhere. These puzzlers penned by the mistress of murder are not to be missed.
