Publisher's Summary

Three perplexing puzzles - and three inimitable Wimsey solutions - told with wit, humor, and suspense. Narrator Ian Carmichael, the quintessential Lord Peter, provides great entertainment with his talented performance of these three stories.

In "Striding Folly", a frightening dream provides a haunting premonition. A house numbered 13 is in a street of even numbers, and a dead man was never alive in "The Haunted Policeman." And "Talboys" sees Lord Peter's own children accused of theft.

Thoroughly enjoyed

Thoroughly enjoy these three short stories! Very entertaining. They covered three sections of Wimsey's life. I actually didn't know there were stories about him having a son, including when the child was 4 years old. A recommended selection for you
