Hangman's Holiday: Collection of Short Mysteries (Lord Peter Wimsey #9)by Dorothy L. Sayers

Amusing and absolutely appalling things happen on the way to the gallows when murder meets Lord Peter Wimsey and the delightful working-class sleuth Montague Egg. This sumptuous feast of criminal doings and undoings includes a vintage double identity and a horrid incident of feline assassination that will tease the minds of cat-lovers everywhere.

Not to be missed are "The Incredible Elopement of Peter Wimsey" (with a lovely American woman-turned-zombie) and eight more puzzlers penned in inimitable style by the mistress of murder.

Includes:

The image in the mirror -
The incredible elopement of Lord Peter Wimsey -
The queen's square -
The necklace of pearls -
The poisoned dow '08 -
Sleuths on the scent -
Murder in the morning -
One too many -
Murder at Pentecost -
Maher-Shalal-Hashbaz -
The man who knew how -
The fountain plays.
