Summary "Clouds of Witness" by Dorothy L. Sayers is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Lord Peter Wimsey, a brilliant detective known for his keen intellect and charm, who is called to investigate a murder case that directly implicates his own brother, the Duke of Denver. The plot intricately weaves together themes of family, honor, and the complexities of love, all while exploring the social milieu of the English aristocracy. At the start of the narrative, Lord Peter Wimsey is enjoying a much-needed holiday in Corsica, having grown weary of London's sophisticated crimes and the pressures of his life. His respite is abruptly interrupted by shocking news: his brother has been arrested for the murder of Captain Denis Cathcart, who was shot at the family estate, Riddlesdale Lodge. The opening chapters introduce the immediate aftermath of the crime, focusing on the inquest and revealing the tangled relationships and potential motives among the key players involved. As the narrative unfolds, Wimsey is drawn back into a web of intrigue where he must uncover the truth behind the tragic events, balancing his familial loyalty with his detective instincts.
