Gaudy Night A Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane Mystery - Mystery Masters Series Author:Dorothy L. Sayers Malicious mischief is the order of the day in Gaudy Night. Lord Peter Wimsey continues to ply Harriet Vane with marriage proposals, but she has other things in mind - a reunion at her alma mater, Oxford. The normally staid academic setting suffers a rash of bizarre pranks: scrawled obscenities, burnt effigies, and poison-pen letters - including ... more »one that says, "Ask your boyfriend with the title if he likes arsenic in his soup." Some of the notes threaten murder, all are perfectly ghastly, and all are impeccably worded. Harriet finds herself ensnared in a nightmare of romance and terror, with few clues to challenge her powers of detection and those of her sometime boyfriend, Lord Peter. Reader Ian Carmichael expertly renders not only the male characters but a slew of females as well in this superb audio edition of the book.« less
