Reviews

[Emily Funkhouser · Rating 4 out of 5]

Enjoyed all 4 mysteries immensely. I maintain that they are better than Agatha Christie.

[Will · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book contains four complete classic Lord Peter Wimsey novels by Dorothy Sayers: Unnatural Death, Clouds of Witness, The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club, and The Five Red Herrings. It's a big, hefty, thick book in this format, which is why it took so long for me to get through it, even though it was at least my second time to read these. Highly recommended for all mystery fans.
