Beschreibung
When a dead body, carefully arranged and naked except for a pince-nez, is discovered in a bathtub, amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey, deducing the man is not who he appears to be, takes it upon himself to solve the mystery, leading to an array of twists and turns that make Whose Body a masterful, intricate, immersive, and supremely intelligent whodunit-the novel that established Dorothy L. Sayers as a master of the mystery novel, while introducing the inimitable, brilliant, aristocrat Wimsey, one of the most unforgettable and popular heroes of the genre. This unique edition contains the full text of Whose Body?, handsomely designed, plus an essay by Chris Willis that first appeared in The Strand Magazine about the character of Lord Peter Wimsey.

Über den Autor
Dorothy L. Sayers (1893-1957) is best known as the creator of Lord Peter Wimsey. Her blue-blooded sleuth romps cheerfully through 1920s and 1930s high society, solving mysteries among the upper classes of Belgravia and the artistic Bohemians of Bloomsbury. Arguably the best of the leading "Golden Age" crime writers, Sayers once stated that her goal in writing detective fiction was to elevate the mystery novel into a novel of manners. Sayers was also a distinguished theologian and classical scholar, whose translations of Dante are still in print today.
