This is probably my favorite Lord Peter mystery. Absolutely wonderful! This book is about working in an advertising agency and what is involved. While somewhat dated, that is part of what makes this story so fascinating. Lord Peter's sense of humor and turn of phrase works perfectly in this setting and, of course, the murder is quite a puzzle.

Never enjoyed a detective story so much - probably because it takes place in a large advertising agency and what goes on there in the everyday run of business is so steadily and even so uproariously funny.
