Dorothy Sayers has an unexpected problem on her hands--a dead man in her dining room, one who has cheekily written her a farewell love note before shooting himself.

Gaylord Larsen has created characters based upon these great mystery writers, for, after all, who could be better at solving a village murder than the creator of Miss Marple? And soon the two doyennes of mystery are hot on the trail of the real killer--as, moment by moment, Dorothy Sayers' reputation and her life slip closer to disaster....
