Beschreibung

On Remembrance Day at the Bellona Club, ninety year old General Fentiman is found dead in an armchair. While certainly unpleasant in and of itself, stranger yet is the seemingly simultaneous death of his estranged sister, Lady Dormer. Just one day before the siblings' demise, Fentiman was called to his sister's deathbed to discuss a substantial inheritance that depended on which of the two died first. If it was the Lady, the half-million-pound fortune would be left to the brother and by virtue, his struggling grandchildren-but if it was the General, the sole inheritor would be a distant relative named Ann Dorland. And while Dr. Penberthy able to reveal how General Fentiman died, it is up to Lord Peter Wimsey to uncover when. An intriguing addition to a beloved series, Dorothy L. Sayers' The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club (1928) is both a captivating mystery and compelling meditation on gentleman detective Lord Peter Wimsey himself.
