Buchbeschreibung Audio Book (CD). Zustand: Good. Unabridged. From AudioFileThe legions of readers who regularly reread Sayers's 1930s mysteries can take heart. Jill Paton Walsh has produced a new Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane book based on notes left by Sayers. Don't let loyalty to Sayers make you resist. This, the second "Sayers" novel written by Paton Walsh, is tremendously good. It's witty, subtle, and full of WWII period detail. In fact, it's well-nigh perfect. Edward Petherbridge's BBC television role as Lord Peter Wimsey is widely regarded as the best of the best. He captured the character's nervy brilliance and his mix of fragility and strength. A narrator, of course, is called upon to make every character come alive. Petherbridge succeeds admirably, a particularly impressive feat with a story in which Lord Peter, who is off to war, hardly appears. This audiobook delights. May Jill Paton Walsh write many more. A.C.S. AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine-- Copyright AudioFile, Portland, MaineProduct DescriptionIn 1998, Jill Paton Walsh completed Dorothy L. Sayers last, unfinished Lord Peter Wimsey novel, Thrones, Dominations to widespread praise. Here, using The Wimsey Papersin which Sayers described life in Britain during World War IIWalsh devises an irresistible story set in 1940 at the start of the Blitz. While Lord Peter is abroad on a secret mission, Harriet Vane, now Lady Peter Wimsey, takes their children to safety in the country. But theres no escape from war: rumors of spies abound, glamorous RAF pilots and flirtatious land-girls scandalize the villagers, and the blackout makes rural lanes as sinister as Londons alleys. And when a practice air-raid ends with a young womans death, its almost a shock to hear that the cause is not enemy action, but murder. Or is it? With Peter away, Harriet sets out to find out whodunit and the chilling reason why. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers SONG1572703237
