Publisher Description

Society’s eligible women are in mourning. Lord Peter Wimsey has married at last, having finally succeeded in his ardent pursuit of the lovely mystery novelist Harriet Vane. The two depart for a tranquil honeymoon in a country farmhouse, but find, instead of a well-prepared love nest, the place left in a shambles by the previous owner. His sudden appearance, dead from a broken skull in the cellar, only prompts more questions. Why would anyone have wanted to kill old Mr. Noakes? What dark secrets had he to hide? The honeymoon is over, as Lord Peter and Harriet Vane start their investigations. Suspicion is rife and everyone seems to have something to hide, from the local constable to the housekeeper. Wimsey and his wife can think of plenty of theories, but it s not until they discover a vital fact that the identity of the murderer becomes clear.

"In addition to the actual mystery, which is full of twists and turns, this novel tells the story of Peter and Harriet's first weeks of married life. It introduces Peter's hilarious (and insightful) mother and highlights the developing relationship between her and Harriet. My husband has listened to the Sayers novels once and enjoys the mysteries. I listen to them repeatedly because for the stories of Peter, Harriet, and England during the war years. And Ian Carmichael is an excellent reader!"

    " This is the last of the Peter Wimsey/Harriet Vane novels, when they at long last get married. The voice work is excellent and the mystery is an intriguing one. Even more enjoyable for the modern reader is getting a glimpse of English country life of the 1930s as Peter and Harriet move into their honeymoon cottage in a sleepy English village. If you enjoy mysteries, and always wanted to see Peter and Harriet happy at last, this audiobook is for you. "
