  • "Mystery writer Harriet Vane attends her Oxford reunion, known as the "Gaudy". But the festivities are haunted by a series of ghastly warnings which threaten murder. Soon Harriet and her paramour, Lord Peter Wimsey, find themselves ensnared in a nightmare of terror."
  • "At Oxford an unscholarly soul was majoring in mischief and minoring in murder."@en
  • "Harriet Vane's Oxford reunion is shadowed by a rash of bizarre pranks and malicious mischief that include beautifully worded death threats, burnt effigies, and vicious poison-pen letters, and Harriet finds herself and Lord Peter Wimsey challenged by an elusive set of clues."@en
  • "Lord Peter Wimsey, blaublütig, scharfsinnig und cool von Geburt, wird in letzter Not in ein Mädchen-College nach Oxford gerufen. Man will jedes Aufsehen und vor allem das Auftauchen der Polizei vermeiden, obwohl Unheimliches passiert. Schülerinnen und Lehrkräfte erhalten Drohbriefe. Eine Strohpuppe, durchbohrt von einem Messer, hängt am Dachbalken. Ein früheres College-Mitglied, die Krimiautorin Harriet Vane, entgeht nur knapp einem Mordanschlag. Gerade ihr eilt Lord Peter gern zu Hilfe. Oxford wird so auch zum Ort seiner grossen Liebe. (Quelle: Buchdeckel verso)."
  • "Harriet Vane's return to Oxford is marked by poison pen letters and attempted blackmail. Lord Peter Wimsey intercedes."@en
  • "Back at Oxford for her reunion, Harriet Vane, Lord Peter's beloved, finds herself in mortal dangerSince she graduated from Oxford's Shrewsbury College, Harriet Vane has found fame by writing novels about ingenious murders. She also won infamy when she was accused of committing a murder herself. It took a timely intervention from the debonair Lord Peter Wimsey to save her from the gallows, and since then she has devoted her spare time to resisting his attempts to marry her. Putting aside her lingering shame from the trial, Harriet returns to Oxford for her college reunion with her head held high-only to find that her life is in danger once again. The first poison-pen letter calls her a "dirty murderess," and the ones that follow are no kinder. As the threats become more frightening, she calls on Lord Peter for help. Among the dons of Oxford lurks a killer, but it will take more than a superior education to match Lord Peter and the daring Harriet. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Dorothy L. Sayers including rare images from the Marion E. Wade Center at Wheaton College."@en
  • "When Harriet Vane attends her Oxford reunion, known as the "Gaudy." the prime academic setting is haunted by a rash of bizarre pranks: scrawled obscenities, burnt effigies, and poison-pen letters - including one that says, "Ask your boyfriend with the title if he likes arsenic in his soup." Some of the notes threaten murder; all are perfectly ghastly; yet in spite of their scurrilous nature, all are perfectly worded. And Harriet finds herself ensnared in a nightmare of romance and terror, with only the tiniest shreds of slues to challenge her powers of detection, and those of her paramour, Lord Peter Wimsey.-Back cover."@en

  • "Der blaublütige Amateurdetektiv Lord Peter Wimsey, begabt mit äußerstem Scharfsinn und gentlemenhafter Lässigkeit, wird in letzter Not gerufen. In einem Mädchen-College in Oxford, das jedes Aufsehen durch die Polizei vermeiden will, geschieht Unheimliches. Schülerinnen und Schüler erhalten Drohbriefe und ein mysteriöser Poltergeist demoliert die Einrichtung. Eine Strohpuppe, symbolisch durchbohrt von einem Messer, hängt an einem Dachbalken und ein früheres College-Mitglied, die Kriminalautorin Harriet Vane, entgeht nur knapp einem Mordanschlag."
