About this listen

A prominent financier vanishes before bedtime, without his clothes. Hours later, a corpse is found in a bathtub wearing only pince-nez eyeglasses. When it’s determined that the body is not that of the financier, it’s up to amateur detective Lord Peter Wimsey to uncover the naked truth. As the part-time sleuth investigates what these men - one dead, one missing, both starkers - have in common, the pieces of two puzzles converge, and the case becomes more dangerous by the clue.

Dorothy L. Sayers’s debut whodunit introduced the world to her British gentleman detective Lord Wimsey. The first in her series, Whose Body? still delights and surprises right down to its devious denouement.

Revised edition: Previously published as Whose Body?, this edition of Whose Body? (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Critic reviews

"The real pleasure of the novel, conveyed with extra brio by Guy Mott's brisk and lively narration, is the depiction of Wimsey's world as enjoyable fantasy, a place for the harried, the stressed and the weary to live somewhere else in their minds." --The New York Times Book Review
