Diskrete Zeugen (Clouds of Witness, German edition) (Lord Peter Wimsey Mysteries, 2)
An intricate and lovely mystery. Solid plot with lots of twists and turns. Lord Peter Wimsley is on a mission to exonerate his brother the Duke accused of murdering the fiancee of his younger sister. The period, early 20's is very well described without being heavy and awkward. The characters we've met in the previous book, Parker, the Duchess, Peter we come to care a lot about. A little less of Bunter in this one but we do meet Lady Mary and learn a little about Lord Peter's past. I loved it. I kept rationing my chapters because I didn't want it to end and have one less book to read.
