In 1915, Sherlock Holmes is retired and quietly engaged in the study of honeybees in Sussex when a young woman literally stumbles onto him on the Sussex Downs. Fifteen years old, gawky, egotistical, and recently orphaned, the young Mary Russell displays an intellect to impress even Sherlock Holmes. Under his reluctant tutelage, this very modern, twentieth-century woman proves a deft protégée and a fitting partner for the Victorian detective.

Histoire5 out of 5 stars 1
Mr. Thipps wakes up to the worst day ever. A dead body in his bathtub wearing nothing but a pair of pince-nez. So many questions. Luckily, Lord Peter Wimsey catches wind of this – for he has a keen mind for solving crimes, although he is the pampered aristocratic amateur. With the connections that privilege offers, he has returned somewhat battered from the war with a penchant for crime solving. This case of near-sighted nudity, taking place during the plague of 1918, takes on twists and turns both unforeseen and unwelcome.

Wonderful stories and narrator
Not quite sure what the other reviewers are on about. The narration was wonderful. And Dorothy Sayers never disappoints.

Lose the Narrator or Lose Customers !
This narrator takes the prize for Worst Narration Ever Heard ! Have been listening to audio novels for over 15 years and she hits a low I never realized existed.
She makes Wimsey sound like a bad castrati in a medieval chorus : he squeals to show a range of emotions from surprize to astonishment to delight. I kept waiting for her-as-him to hit high C.
McDowell has taken the idea of "camp" into a whole new dimension. Poor Peter.
Ngaio Marsh put it best in an open letter to an aspiring would-be writer : You poor, poor boy. Poor, poor Peter Wimsey.
And poor poor listeners.

Nope, returning immediately.
I loath and despise Jane McDowell's unintelligible narration. I listened for a few minutes, I skipped forward to a different chapter, I tried, and I just about cried. Thank you, Audible, I will be taking advantage of your return policy this time.
I know that other people have recorded versions of Dorothy L Sayers books. I regret bitterly that I cannot buy those recordings online in Canada at this time. I'll be searching for old second hand copies on CD as my last hope.
