After a corpse wearing pince-nez glasses is found in a bathtub, Lord Peter Wimsey undertakes the case and investigates the deed privately. But determining whether the corpse belongs to a well-known banker or a group of mischief-making medical students is just the beginning of this tangled mystery plot. This atmospheric novel put Dorothy L. Sayers in the ranks with Agatha Christie as a mystery writer nonpareil.

      The first of Sayers's Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries is a witty and accomplished page-turner of the gentleman detective school. David Case expertly voices the well-drawn dramatis personae, though he seems a bit out of step with the Bertie Woosterish style that Wimsey wears like a disguise. His rhythms are sometimes very odd. Nonetheless, he still manages to deliver an earful of delightful writing. Y.R. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
