The clean pages and secure binding ensure that readers can immerse themselves in Sayers’ intricate plots and richly drawn characters, following Lord Peter as he navigates the aristocratic circles of 1920s and 1930s England. For collectors, this volume represents an opportunity to own a piece of literary history, a window into a era when detective fiction was at its zenith, and Sayers was one of its most celebrated practitioners.
