Lord Peter Wimsey: The Complete Short Stories by Dorothy L Sayers

The complete collection of Dorothy L. Sayers' Lord Peter Wimsey stories, together in one volume for the first time.
Be warned. . once you make friends with Wimsey you'll want to get better acquainted -- Christopher Fowler * from introduction to Lord Peter Views the Body *
The books chronicling Wimsey's adventures remain models of their kind -- Barry Forshaw * from introduction to Five Red Herrings *
In time of dire and immediate trouble, on might well call upon a Sherlock Holmes for a quick solution to one's trials. But for the balm that reassures one about surviving the vicissitudes of life, one could do no better than to anchor onto a Lord Peter Wimsey. -- Elisabeth George * from introduction to In the Teeth of the Evidence *

Dorothy L Sayers was born in Oxford in 1893, and was both a classical scholar and a graduate in modern languages. As well as her popular Lord Peter Wimsey series, she wrote several religious plays, but considered her translations of Dante's Divina Commedia to be her best work. She died in 1957.
