Whose Body? by Dorothy L Sayers

Whose Body? by Dorothy L Sayers

A corpse has been found in the bath of an architect's flat, wearing nothing but a pair of pince-nez.

A financier has seemingly vanished into thin air from his bedroom.

The ever-curious Lord Peter Wimsey is intrigued by these odd events. Ignoring the clumsy efforts of the official investigator looking into the death, the aristocratic amateur sleuth, accompanied by his valet, Bunter, a skilled photographer, begins his own inquiry. The gentleman detective soon becomes convinced that the two cases are somehow linked. Now, he must uncover the connection--and the investigation quickly begins to bleed into his own life, stirring up dark memories of World War I that will have unexpected consequences for Wimsey and the faithful Bunter.

Dorothy L. Sayers (1893-1957) was an English writer best known for her crime novels, poems and short stories. She grew up in a small village and attended boarding school before receiving a scholarship to Somerville College, Oxford. Sayers graduated in 1915 and published her first collection of poetry OP. I in 1916. Years later, she began working on the crime story Whose Body?, which would become her most celebrated work. It features the introduction of amateur detective, Lord Peter Wimsey, who appears in more than 10 of her novels.
