| Summary | "Whose Body?" by Dorothy L. Sayers is a detective novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces Lord Peter Wimsey, an aristocratic amateur sleuth, who finds himself embroiled in a bizarre case involving a dead body discovered in the bath of a respectable architect. The novel features both humor and intricacies of detective work, as Lord Peter navigates through social quirks and the murkiness of crime in London. The opening portion of the novel sets the tone for a classic whodunit. Lord Peter Wimsey receives a call from his mother about the shocking discovery made by Mr. Thipps, the architect, who finds a naked corpse in his bath. Following the initial shock, Wimsey promptly decides to investigate the curious case himself. As he meets Mr. Thipps, the architect reveals his distress over the intrusion of police and the peculiar circumstances surrounding the incident. The interplay between the quirky characters and the unfolding mystery serves to create an engaging atmosphere, laying the groundwork for an entertaining exploration of motives and the peculiarities of human behavior in the face of crime.
