About the book
"Unnatural Death" by Dorothy L. Sayers is a mystery novel published in 1927. Lord Peter Wimsey investigates the seemingly natural death of an elderly cancer patient, despite no evidence of foul play.

With help from private investigator Miss Climpson, he pursues a cunning killer using an ingenious murder method—but the trail leads to unexpected connections and deadly disguises.
