Murder Must Advertise
Book 8 of the Lord Peter Wimsey series
Lord Peter Wimsey goes undercover as copywriter Death Bredon at a London advertising agency after an employee dies in suspicious circumstances. Office rivalries, elaborate campaigns, and bright young socialites conceal a drug-distribution network operating through the city's nightlife. Peter must balance his invented workplace identity with dangerous contacts who will not tolerate scrutiny. Fast, funny, and sharply observant, this mystery suits readers who enjoy workplace ensembles, 1930s advertising, undercover investigations, and satire threaded through genuine peril.
