Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. "Clouds of Witness" is a sophisticated and compelling installment in the classic Golden Age of detective fiction. The story centers on the aristocratic and sharp-witted amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey, who finds himself embroiled in a deeply personal crisis when his brother, the Duke of Denver, is accused of murdering their sister's fiance. The discovery of a body at the family's Yorkshire shooting lodge sets off a high-stakes investigation that moves from the fog-drenched moors to the inner sanctums of the British peerage.As the Duke faces trial by his peers in the House of Lords, Wimsey and his resourceful valet, Bunter, must unravel a complex tapestry of secrets, lies, and conflicting testimonies. The narrative is filled with intellectual puzzles, social satire, and high-society intrigue, exploring themes of family loyalty and the rigid class structures of post-war England, all while maintaining the suspense of a first-rate whodunnit.Renowned for its witty dialogue and intricate plotting, "Clouds of Witness" solidified the place of Lord Peter Wimsey as one of the most enduring figures in mystery literature. This work remains a definitive example of the British mystery genre, offering readers a rich atmosphere and a challenging case that tests the limits of logic and evidence.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
