Sayers is a "must read" for all mystery people. These books can be easily read out of order....her English dialoge is a treat!
A HONEYMOON Is AN UNFORTUNATE OCCASION FOR MURDER, ESPECIALi.Y
WHEN LORD PETER WlMSEY
IS THE BRIDEGRooM,.
Murder was hardly the best way for Lord Peter and his bride, the famous
mystery writer Harriet Vane, to start their honeymoon. It, all began when the former owner of their newly acquired estate.
was found quite nastily dead in the cellar.
And what Lord Peter had hoped would
be a very private and romantic stay in the country soon turned into a most
baffling case, what with the misspelled
"notise" to the milkman and the intriguing condition 0f the deadman -not a spot of blood on his smashed skull and not a pence less than 600 pounds in his pocket.

"BUSMAN'S HONEYMOON HAS
EVERYTHING-MYSTERY; COMEDY, LOVE, AND DRAMA-ALL SERVED UP IN
DOROTHY SAYERS' BEST STYLE
The New York Times
