Whose Body?

The first thrilling outing for the inimitable Lord Peter Wimsey plunges him into a bizarre London mystery: a naked corpse, complete with a golden pince-nez, is found in a bewildered architect's bathtub. As Wimsey, his unflappable valet Bunter, and Inspector Charles Parker of Scotland Yard delve into the case, they uncover a tangle of mistaken identities, surgical secrets, and a sinister connection to a missing financier. Sayers masterfully blends the grim reality of murder with a dry, sophisticated wit, introducing readers to a detective unlike any other – an aristocratic dilettante with a razor-sharp mind and a penchant for linguistic flourishes.
