The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club by Dorothy L. Sayers
4.0
An elderly gentleman dies in Lord Peter's club. Not so unusual, perhaps...except that this old gentleman had a complicated family backstory and a relative who's been rather looking forward to his inheritance. Can Lord Peter untangle the mystery of how, when, and where exactly the General died, and settle the matter of to whom the inheritance should go?
This one was entertaining and kept me guessing. Particularly interesting, and insightful, is the relationship between Lord Peter's friend George and the General. The General disdains George because he doesn't understand or accept the pain that PTSD causes WWI veteran George in his everyday life, and sees him as merely weak and parasitic. Highly recommended.
