Lord Peter Wimsey investigates a death with no apparent means or motive. There are lots of lesbians. The story is pretty gripping but one of the twists is pretty obvious. I found Miss Climpson's style of letter writing incredibly amusing. The language is dated by use of certain slurs.
Graphic: Racial slurs, Violence, and Murder
Moderate: Homophobia, Racism, Sexism, Terminal illness, Toxic relationship, Medical content, Lesbophobia, and Toxic friendship
Minor: Cancer, Suicide, Blood, Antisemitism, and Car accident
