Strong Poison: The Lord Peter Wimsey mystery that introduced Harriet Vane

She was on trial for murdering the man she loved—and the man who could save her was falling in love with her instead.When mystery novelist Harriet Vane is accused of poisoning her ex-lover with arsenic, the evidence is damning and the gossip is worse. Enter Lord Peter Wimsey: aristocratic sleuth, incurable romantic, and the one man convinced the jury has it wrong. As he races against the clock to find the real killer before Harriet hangs, Dorothy L. Sayers delivers her most emotionally charged detective novel—a golden age mystery that's as much about the impossibility of proving your innocence as it is about the thrill of the chase.Wickedly clever, unexpectedly tender, and packed with courtroom tension, Strong Poison is the book where Wimsey meets his match. Why does it still grip readers a century later? Because falling in love with your prime suspect has never been so dangerous—or so irresistible.
