Summary
The third book in Dorothy L Sayers' classic Lord Peter Wimsey series - a must-listen for fans of Agatha Christie's Poirot and Margery Allingham's Campion Mysteries.
'No sign of foul play,' says Dr Carr after the post-mortem on Agatha Dawson. The case is closed. But Lord Peter Wimsey is not satisfied...
With no clues to work on, he begins his own investigation. No clues, that is, until the sudden, senseless murder of Agatha's maid.
What is going on in the mysterious Mrs Forrest's Mayfair flat? And can Wimsey catch a desperate murderer before he himself becomes one of the victims?

Classic crime
I’ve always enjoyed the Wimsey books since first reading them as a teenager. This recording didn’t quite live up to expectations as the performance felt a bit dry. Wimsey’s humour and passion was there to some degree and Miss Climpson was a joy, but poor Charles Parker came across as a cardboard cutout.

Robert Bathhurst's Reading - brilliant stuff
As with books one and two, I have been surprised by the excellence of the writing and the very modern and liberal outlook of the author. And with Robert Bathhurst's fantastic characterisations of all human life, the writer finally has the narrator she deserves. (That said, i do love the Ian carmichael recordings but they are a bit rough around the edges, quality-iwise). Please hurry with recording the rest of the Lord Peter Wimsey books. I can't wait!

DLS shows off her medico legal knowledge
DLS switches the tone in This third in the LPW series. She shows off her medico legal knowledge. The audience is engaged as Wimsey unravels a mystery from an anecdote of a Doctor, again not being afraid to rely on his intuition. The story sees the introduction of Miss Climpson, who I think may have provided the inspiration for Patricia Wentworth's Miss Silver, another enjoyable golden age of detection character. I sincerely hope that this production team produces all of the remaining LPW series, I wait with eager anticipation for the next book.
