I had never read Sayers before.  What a rollicking start to her writing career.  I felt like I was transported into a British period mystery.  Lord Peter Wimsey is nearly as fun as Bertie Wooster!  In this mystery, a middle aged man appears in someone's bathtub, naked and dead.  Another middle aged man goes missing.  Nobody is certain who the one is or where the other could be.  Then Lord Peter starts asking questions.  Great fun.
