Pozn.: The elegant, intelligent amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey is one of detective literature’s most popular creations. Ian Carmichael is the personification of Dorothy L. Sayers‘ charming investigator in this BBC Radio full-cast dramatization.
When copywriter Victor Dean falls to his death on the stairs of Pym’s Advertising Agency, no one seems to mind. That is, until Lord Peter joins the firm incognito as Dean’s replacement and starts asking questions which lead him into a network of blackmailers, drug pushers, and one of the most deadly plots of crime fiction. However, before the crimes can be solved and the truth revealed, five more people must die…

When ad man Victor Dean falls down the stairs in the offices of Pym’s Publicity, a respectable London advertising agency, it looks like an accident. Then Lord Peter Wimsey is called in, and he soon discovers there’s more to copywriting than meets the eye. A bit of cocaine, a hint of blackmail, and some wanton women can be read between the lines. And then there is the brutal succession of murders — 5 of them — each one a fixed fee for advertising a deadly secret.
