Fiction. Mystery. HTML:A special edition of the first three classic mysteries featuring British aristocrat and sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey.
A gentleman needs hobbies. For Lord Peter Wimsey??a Great War veteran with a touch of shell shock??collecting rare books, sampling fine wines, and catching criminals help pass the time.

In Whose Body?, a dead man wearing nothing but a pince-nez is found in the bathtub of an architect's London flat??and Wimsey encounters a bizarre puzzle.

Clouds of Witness brings Lord Wimsey to the family's shooting lodge in Yorkshire. Humans are not meant to be targets, but Wimsey's sister's fiancé has been felled by a bullet??and his brother accused of the crime. The investigation will bring him into contact with a socialist agitator, a hot-tempered farmer, and a host of unseemly secrets.

In Unnatural Death, everyone expected the ailing and elderly Miss Agatha Dawson to die??just not quite so soon. When the doctor who treated her shares his suspicions with Wimsey, he sets out to discover who rushed the patient to her demise.

This exciting volume of renowned author Dorothy L. Sayers's beloved cozy British mystery series is a perfect introduction for new readers, as well as a familiar friend for long

This is a great collection of the first Lord Peter Wimsey stories. It was nice to be able to read this in the order they were published. The book is well edited and includes a nice biography and photos of Dorothy Sayers. The e-book was however expensive. The next volumes in the series have a price that is nothing short of outrageous.
