Publisher's Synopsis
In Dorothy L. Sayer's third Lord Peter Wimsey novel, Unnatural Death, Agatha Dawson, a woman of advancing years, appears to suffer a natural demise. Amidst the façade of calm, a disquieting unease piques the curiosity of aristocratic crime fighter Lord Peter Wimsey, prompting him to send his investigator, Miss Catherine Climpson, to do some sleuthing in the quaint village of Leahampton. A mystery develops when the body of one of Dawson's maids is found in a nearby forest. Lord Peter Wimsey and his astute confidant Detective-Inspector Charles Parker embark on a labyrinthine quest to find the truth behind the seemingly unmotivated violence and a tangled web of murky clues.
