From the back cover - “A naked body is discovered in the bathroom of a London architect’s apartment. Is it Sir Rueben Levy, the well-known financier who recently disappeared? Or is it a stiff dragged from the dissecting rooms of St. Luke’s Hospital? Lord Peter Wimsey must unravel the tangled threads that lead from a prostitute, to a well-known surgeon, and to a mysterious reunion at a London night-club…

This was my second Lord Peter book, the first in the series. Sayers’ description of the dead body and the killer’s confession letter are wonderfully rich.
