And truth be told, they have shattered the confidence of the lead investigator on the case, who has long taken pride in his old-school "copper's nose." When yet another body turns up, he's forced to give way to a new chief with fancy new detecting techniques. But when those, too, prove unequal to the task, the police are stymied. So they reach back to the past, invoking the skills of one of the great Gentleman Sleuths. Is this nutty' No doubt. But Lord Peter Wimsey always got his man.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Classy and sophisticated...if you thought the Golden Age of crime fiction was dead, then read this." &#8212Ruth Dugdall, Dagger award winner: British Crime Writers' Association<br><br>"Comfortingly old-school crime fiction with a modern twist" &#8212Christopher Brookmyre, Dagger award winner: British Crime Writers' Association<br><br>"Anglophiles and lovers of Golden Age mysteries will savor this brisk police procedural, loaded with plenty of red herrings and chockablock with incident and character" &#8212<i>Library Journal</i><br>
