The Nine Tailors –Dorothy L Sayers Speciale Aanbieding

Beschrijving

The Nine Tailors

It was a corpse, disfigured and unrecognisable. The sexton found it, and appropriately it was in the churchyard. The Nine Tailors is one of Dorothy Sayers’ finest books of detection, featuring her internationally famous detective creation, Lord Peter Wimsey.

When his sexton finds a corpse in the wrong grave, the rector of Fenchurch St Paul asks Lord Peter Wimsey to find out who the dead man was and how he came to be there. The lore of bell-ringing and a brilliantly-evoked village in the remote fens of East Anglia are the unforgettable background to a story of an old unsolved crime and its violent unravelling twenty years later. ‘She brought to the detective novel originality, intelligence, energy and wit.’ P. D. James
