Lord Peter Views the Body

Lord Peter Wimsey, a disarmingly charming and formidable aristocrat, is one of the most beloved and enduring characters in English literature. And Ian Carmichael is the perfect actor to bring Lord Peter Wimsey gloriously to life. Here's a showcase of delightful Wimsey: wit, humor, suspense, and more. This is an outstanding short story collection featuring nine disturbing deaths, nine perplexing puzzles, and nine inimitable Wimsey solutions. Murder always leaves clues behind, and the debonair detective investigates a variety of peculiar pieces of evidence.

In nine unabridged stories, Lord Peter Wimsey deals with such marvels as "The Man with Copper Fingers", "The Fantastic Horror of the Cat in the Bag", "The Unprincipled Affair of the Practical Joker", and "The Undignified Melodrama of the Bone of Contention", just to name a few.

Wimsey's faithful manservant, Bunter, is at his side, and listeners delight in hearing about the Egotists' Club, to which Wimsey belongs, where you may talk about yourself as much as you like. Sayers reveals a gruesome, grotesque, but absolutely bewitching side rarely exhibited in Wimsey's full-length adventures.
