Putting aside her lingering shame from the trial, Harriet returns to Oxford for her college reunion with her head held high-only to find that her life is in danger once again. It took a timely intervention from the debonair Lord Peter Wimsey to save her from the gallows, and since then she has devoted her spare time to resisting his attempts to marry her. She also won infamy when she was accused of committing a murder herself. Since she graduated from Oxford’s Shrewsbury College, Harriet Vane has found fame by writing novels about ingenious murders. Oxford is full of memories-and threats of murder-for Harriet Vane and Lord Peter Wimsey in this mystery that “stands out even among Miss Sayers’s novels” ( The Times Literary Supplement). ![]()
