The Nine Tailors

The nine tellerstokes from the belfry of an ancient country church toll out the death of an unknown man and call the famous Lord Peter Wimsey to one of his most brilliant cases. Steeped in the atmosphere of a quiet parish in the strange, flat fen-country of East Anglia, this is a tale of suspense, character, and mood by an author the critics rate as one of the great masters of the mystery novel.

For some reason, this one took me a while. I had to look up a lot about England's love of bell ringing, and I had NO IDEA how involved it was. I even youtubed some people doing it ... fascinating. I enjoyed the mystery, loved the characters and would probably read another Peter Wimsey book, but I do not consider Sayers one of the number one mystery writers IMHO. She's an acquired taste, similar to P.D. James. I still prefer Holmes overall.
