Hangman's Holiday
Penguin reprint, published 1963.
A collection of 12 short detective stories. In the first four, Lord Peter Wimsey solves the mysteries of the man who was blown into the fourth dimension and the murder in fancy dress. He pursues miscreants across several countries and into unexpected hiding places.
For the next six, Dayers' other detective, Montague Egg, encounters a fugitive murderer and uncovers a killer in an Oxford cloister. The travelling salesman extraordinaire solves puzzles with a unique combination of matter-of-fact practicality and brilliant deduction.
The final two separate stories complete this varied selection of Sayers detection.
Condition grading: Good Minus. Some wear and creasing to spine. Light creases to both covers. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
