THE MULTIMILLION-COPY BESTSELLING QUEEN OF CLASSIC CRIME, DOROTHY L SAYERS

'Dorothy L. Sayers is one of our best detective story writers' Daily Telegraph

'One of crime fiction's most memorable detectives' The New York Times

'She brought to the detective novel originality, intelligence, energy and wit' P. D. James
________________________________________________________________________________

Lord Peter Wimsey encounters his greatest challenge yet. Not in solving a crime, but in matters of the heart. 

Mystery writer Harriet Vane stands trial for poisoning her unfaithful lover, accused of slipping arsenic into his morning coffee.

Convinced of her innocence from the moment their eyes meet across the courtroom, Wimsey embarks on a desperate race against time to uncover the truth.

The Crown's case is watertight. The police are adamant that the right person is on trial. It seems certain that Harriet Vane shall hang.

Can Lord Peter Wimsey prove that she is not guilty of murder - or find the real poisoner in time to save her from the gallows?
