Publisher Description
Three perplexing puzzles—and three inimitable Wimsey solutions—told with wit, humor, and suspense. Narrator Ian Carmichael, the quintessential Lord Peter, provides great entertainment with his talented performance of these three stories. In “Striding Folly,” a frightening dream provides a haunting premonition. A house numbered thirteen is in a street of even numbers, and a dead man was never alive in “The Haunted Policeman.” And “Talboys” sees Lord Peter’s own children accused of theft.
