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 longtime fans.
