Summary:
"Three elegant murder mysteries adapted from the crime novels of Dorothy L. Sayers. Set in the 1930's the relationship of amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane unfolds in a realm of romance and intrigue. Strong Poison: Amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey falls in love with Harriet Vane, the mystery writer as she stands in the dock of the Old Bailey. Can he save her from the gallows and win he win her hand? Have His Carcase: Harriet Vane the mystery writer, cleared of murder through the efforts of Lord Peter Wimsey, seeks solace in the country. Walking along a barren beach she stumbles across the body of a bearded young man with his throat cut. With the appearance of her dear friend Lord Peter Wimsey, she finds a reason for detective pursuit... as only the two of them can. Gaudy Night: Upon returning to Oxford for the first time in years for a school reunion, Harriet Vane is asked by her old professors to turn her talents as a detective writer to practical use. Someone is terrorizing the faculty and students. Harriet struggles with the realization that the perpetrator may be a professor while confronting her growing feelings for Lord Peter Wimsey"--Container.
