About this listen

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.

Dorothy Sayers was a scholar, crime writer, and poet. She is best known for her Lord Peter Wimsey novels set between World Wars I and II. Whose Body is the first of these riveting listens.

BJ Harrison, as usual, does a fabulous job of performing Sayers first Lord Whiskey novel. Harrison deftly acts out all the parts with ease.
The novel itself is full of everything you want in a mystery - twists and turns, red herrings, and more. The book is full of suspense and sprinkled with humour and wit. If you are a fan of Agatha Christie you will love Dorothy L. Sayers’ Whose Body?

A wonderful and clever mystery!
