Three and a half in the Lord Peter Wimsey Mystery series. Twelve short stories from Lord Peter's canon that fans of the series will love.  All of the stories give us more information about Lord Peter and his man servant Bunter, as well as the different people in his sphere. Some of the stories are short and involve Lord Peter becoming involved in cases from mere conversations he has overheard; the last story is quite reminiscent of Conan Doyle as Peter fakes his own death to infiltrate a gang of thieves. Wonderful classic mysteries.
