Lord Peter Views the Body

By Dorothy L. Sayers
Lord Peter Views the Body by Dorothy L. Sayers digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Counted among the four “Queens of Crime”, Dorothy L. Sayers was an English writer best known for her upper-class amateur sleuth Peter Wimsey, who first appeared in “Whose Body?”, Sayers’ 1923 debut novel. Sayers is noted for having advanced the genre of detective fiction past the simple solving of puzzles to stories rich with characterization. This can be seen in this classic collection of short stories featuring Lord Peter Wimsey. First collected and published in 1928, “Lord Peter Views the Body” contains twelve classic stories from the golden age of crime fiction. The following tales are included in this collection: “The Abominable History of the Man with Copper Fingers”, “The Entertaining Episode of the Article in Question”, “The Fascinating Problem of Uncle Meleager’s Will”, “The Fantastic Horror of the Cat in the Bag”, “The Unprincipled Affair of the Practical Joker”, “The Undignified Melodrama of the Bone of Contention”, “The Vindictive Story of the Footsteps that Ran”, “The Bibulous Business of a Matter of Taste”, “The Learned Adventure of the Dragon’s Head”, “The Piscatorial Farce of the Stolen Stomach”, “The Unsolved Puzzle of the Man with No Face”, and “The Adventurous Exploit of the Cave of Ali Baba”.
