Publisher Description

When copywriter Victor Dean falls to his death on the stairs of Pym's Advertising Agency, everyone assumes it was an unfortunate accident. His replacement doesn't think so and begins asking a lot of questions. The new man is something of a mystery to his colleagues, and he certainly dresses well considering his meagre writer's salary.

Of course the new copywriter is none other than Lord Peter Wimsey, working incognito to uncover the truth behind what is certainly murder. In between writing catchy slogans, Wimsey sets out to catch the murderer and finds a network of blackmailers, drug pushers, and killers.

But the deeper he gets into this criminal underworld, the more his own life is in danger. And as the murders increase, he must work to a tight deadline if he is to solve the case before it's too late.

"This novel is as much a satire on the advertising industry and office politics as it is a mystery, and none the worse for it. Witty and entertaining, with some genuine laugh-out-loud moments. And Peter Wimsey, of course. (Though, sadly, not as much of Bunter as I would have liked!) "

    " This was an especially good one. The mystery was fun but all the exploration of the personalities and conflicts at the ad firm made it an absolute delight. "

    " I've read all of Sayers' Peter Whimsey novels, but it was some time ago and I don't feel like adding them and trying to rate them all. This one was my favorite though. "

    " Another Peter Wimsey classic. The setting is an advertising firm and even though the mystery of dope and killing was not great but the presentation was beautiful. "

    " My favorite Peter Wimsey novel. Best to start with 'Have his carcase' or 'Strong Poison' or 'Clouds of Witness' to get to know the crazy metro-sexual pseudo-detective from the early 1930's. This is surprisingly hilarious because some things really don't change. "

    " My first Dorothy Sayers mystery. Took me a little while to get into it, but I did enjoy it in the end. I may even have a crush on Lord Peter Wimsey.... "

    " A very entertaining murder mystery where Lord Peter Whimsey plays a dual role rather well. a negative portrayal of advertising in general plays as prominent a role as the murder and investigation, and I really can't say I disagree. "
