Striding folly

Sayers, Dorothy L. (Dorothy Leigh) 1893-1957 (author.).

Summary: Three of Lord Peter Wimsey's most baffling cases demonstrate his unique detection skills at their most spectacular. The enigma of a house numbered thirteen in a street of even numbers; an indignant child accused of theft, a dream about a game of chess that uncovers the true story behind a violent death. Each of the stories introduces a different side of the twentieth century's most ingenious detective hero.
