Lord Peter Wimsey and his wife Harriet Vane are settling into their new life together in 1930s London. But when murder strikes in their own social circle, Harriet becomes drawn into a very unexpected case...Dorothy L. Sayers began writing Thrones, Dominations in 1936. Pressure of work led her to set it aside and later the trustees of the Sayers' estate asked Jill Paton Walsh to complete it. The result is worthy of the mistress of the golden age of the crime novel.

      Sayers never finished this Lord Peter Wimsey mystery, which she began in 1936. Here it is ably completed by Jill Paton Walsh. Peter and Harriet are married, living in London and working on an odd, high-society murder. Glimpses of their life together, the English class system and a bygone era combine for a most interesting period piece. Ian Carmichael, who has played Lord Peter several times for television, is excellent. Particularly enjoyable are his recreations of the self-proclaimed old lady/busybody who adds sparkle to the staid setting. Also his dramatic diary readings are a fun addition to the story. It is truly wonderful to have a new Sayers mystery worthy of her writing and characters, and Carmichael's outstanding presentation adds to the literary treat. S.G.B.
