Lord Peter -- need more be said? But for those who haven't yet met him, his acquaintance is well worth making. Here's a plot summary for this, the 2nd of Sayer's Lord Peter books, from Amazon.com:
Rustic old Riddlesdale Lodge was a Wimsey family retreat filled with country pleasures and the thrill of the hunt -- until the game turned up human and quite dead. He lay among the chrysanthemums, wore slippers and a dinner jacket and was Lord Peter's brother-in-law-to-be. His accused murderer was Wimsey's own brother, and if murder set all in the family wasn't enough to boggle the unflappable Lord Wimsey, perhaps a few twists of fate would be -- a mysterious vanishing midnight letter from Egypt...a grieving fiancee with suitcase in hand...and a bullet destined for one very special Wimsey.

Mailed to NeedSun with many thanks for a great kindness!
This was such a lovely surprise, thank you so much Ramya. I am looking forward to reading this book. You couldn't have selected better.
Lord Peter is wonderful but his friend, Mr Parker, is my favorite. I will have to read more just to see if anything develops between Mr Parker and the beautiful Mary.
I plan to find someone who has this on their wish list and pass it on.

Received today...thank you! I *do* love Lord Peter...
I'm glad I finally got around to reading this - enjoyed it very much. A good clever mystery with lots of interesting twists & turns. That scene in the bog is harrowing to read and gives us a quite touching look at the friendship that exists between Peter and Bunter. Thanks very much for sharing.
Mailed February 15th to nikel27 via the Mystery VBB at BookObsessed.com.

Since I've personally released some books at the OBCZ Regensburg, I'm tickled that another book of mine has made its way there via a more circuitous route!
Spende für die OBCZ. Danke!!
