Liked It1 of 1 members found this review helpful “I am on my third or fourth time through all of the Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries, and this remains my favorite. Not so much for the mystery, which is slight and not particularly frightening, but for the intelligence of Harriet and Peter, and the glimpse into an England long gone.” see full review » see other reviews » |
Didn’t Like It1 of 1 members found this review helpful “I tried, I tried, and I tried again, but couldn't get through this, not even 100 pages. But I have a friend that loved it. If you like victorian style writing, you may very well love this too. Alas, I do not, and thus, did not.” see full review » see other reviews » |

“very clever and a bit wicked. The twists and turns are fun, but some characters are just too mean-spirited. A good mystery.”

“My complete lack of understanding of English University Life and Culture kept most of this as much of a mystery to me as the mystery. I also recall not even mildly understanding the great love declration between Peter and Harriet.”
