Not one of Sayers' best short stories, in my opinion

Well performed, but it's not among the better short stories of Dorothy L. Sayers.
I've read, and listened to, a number of DLS short fictions. This one, I regret to say, was far from her best. I bought it, I listened through it, but it really wasn't worth my time nor its price.
It's very possible that others might like it more than I did, but for me it wasn't a winner.

Always awesome

Even in her short stories, Sayers’ gift is always an entertaining, but thoughtful, “read.” A quick treat!

Enjoyed a lot

Loved the narration, and enjoyed the “ride” (the story). I wasn’t sure where it was going, but was constantly wanting to see what would happen next. Not a typical whodunnit by any means, and for that reason alone, in my opinion, it was quite engaging!
