About this listen

The dignified calm of the Bellona Club is shattered when Lord Peter Wimsey finds General Fentiman dead in his favourite chair. A straighforward death by natural causes? Perhaps... but why can no-one rememeber seeing the general the day he died? And who is the mysterious Mr Oliver? Lord Peter moves between London and Paris, salon and suburbs, to unfold the intriguing case. The elegant, intelligent amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey is one of detective literature’s most popular creations. Ian Carmichael is the personification of Dorothy L. Sayers’ charming investigator in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation.©1991, 2002, 2006 BBC Audiobooks Ltd; (P)2006 BBC Audiobooks Ltd Cosy Crime Thrillers Mystery Thriller & Suspense Traditional Detectives

Well acted & superbly produced. One of my all time favourites. I have the full set of Dorothy L Sayers plays starring Ian Carmichael and love them all.

Excellent Performances & Superbly Produced

If you're a fan of Lord Peter, these dramatisations are the must-have series. Over the years I've had them on audio tape, CD and now have them downloaded. They're a pleasure to listen to. The later books ready by Edward Petherbridge are extremely well read too - it's not hard to picture him as Lord Peter obviously, as he played him in the TV adaptation in the 80s. However, as far as a full cast option goes, these are brilliant.

The ultimate Wimsey performance
