sophia_sol | Strong Poison, by Dorothy Sayers (Reply)

Suddenly and randomly got in the mood to reread this one a little while ago. I do like it, even if the author doesn't recognize that Peter's being a rather a boor to Harriet with his romantic interest since she's stuck and cannot escape him since she's in prison, and moreover needs him in order to not be convicted of murder. OH WELL. The best parts: everything involving Miss Climpson and Miss Murchison. I wish I could read a murder mystery novel actually starring one of these excellent women, instead of having them take second place to Lord Peter Wimsey. They did mosts of the hard work on this one anyway!
