About this listen

Discover Dorothy L. Sayers' inimitable Golden Age detective in this complete collection of the complete Lord Peter Wimsey stories, together in one volume for the first time.

Presented in chronological order, these short stories see Lord Peter Wimsey bringing his trademark wit and unique detection skills to all manner of mysteries. From poisoned port to murder in fancy dress, Wimsey draws on his many skills - including his expertise in fine wine and appreciation of fine art - to solve cases far and wide, some even taking him to foreign countries and unexpected hiding places in pursuit of miscreants and murderers.

Containing 21 stories taken from Lord Peter Views the Body, Hangman's Holiday, In the Teeth of the Evidence and Striding Folly, now published together for the first time in one volume, this is the ultimate collection for fans of classic detective fiction and Dorothy L. Sayers.

Critic reviews

"She brought to the detective novel originality, intelligence, energy and wit." (P. D. James)

I had already read most of the stories so I was worried that I couldn’t enjoy it as much especially with the narrator. Smth about her voice was a bit off. But I still was spellbound most of the way even though I knew the endings.

Managed to be enthralled

The narrator is awful. I am usually humbled by the skill of these readers but this lady spoiled the stories for me. If you cannot do an American - or British - accent then please don’t try because the result is always worse than leaving it to the listener’s imagination. I could not get into the stories themselves s o can’t comment on the content. Maybe you don’t mind the weird voices.
