Busman's Honeymoon — Dorothy L. Sayers

BUSMAN'S HONEYMOON or busman's breakdown? A murder was hardly the best way for LORD PETER WIMSEY and his bride, the famous mystery writer Harriet Vane, to enter into the state of wedlock. It began when a man was found dead in the cellar. Harriet said, "I know it's perfectly idiotic of me, but I can't help wishing we hadn't slept in his bed." Against her protests, Peter vowed to solve the mystery. "Murders go to my head like drink. I simply can't keep off them." And the two were joined in murder.
