  <description><![CDATA[The body was on the pointed rocks alongside the stream. The artist might have fallen from the cliff where he was painting, but there are too many suspicious elements -- particularly the medical evidence that proves he'd been dead nearly half a day, though eyewitnesses had seen him alive a scant hour earlier. And then there are the six prime suspects -- all of them artists, all of whom wished him dead. Five are red herrings, but one has created a masterpiece of murder that baffles everyone, including Lord Peter Wimsey.]]></description>

They are a fun way of spending an evening at home when there is nothing good to watch and the secondary literature in my academic discipline begins to seem a little tedious. *The Five Red Herrings* is a fine example of the genre.

Five are red herrings, but one has created a masterpiece of murder that baffles everyone, including Lord Peter Wimsey.]]>

    <![CDATA[The body was on the pointed rocks alongside the stream. The artist might have fallen from the cliff where he was painting, but there are too many suspicious elements -- particularly the medical evidence that proves he'd been dead nearly half a day, though eyewitnesses had seen him alive a scant hour earlier. And then there are the six prime suspects -- all of them artists, all of whom wished him dead. Five are red herrings, but one has created a masterpiece of murder that baffles everyone, including Lord Peter Wimsey.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I was really disappointed with this one.  I love Dorothy Sayers, but this was just too complicated and annoying.  I'm entirely unfamiliar with the geography of Scotland and the train timetables there, which made the storyline very hard for me to follow.

    <body><![CDATA[More classic mysteries for the buff, what? I think it fair to say that if you enjoy the older style mysteries of England and the like, then you will like nearly all of sayers' work.

    <body><![CDATA[It seems like all the good mystery authors that I like are all compared to Dorothy Sayers. So I had to read one of her books to see.  I have read a few of them before.  I must admit she's really good with the mystery side and all the plot twists. <br/>But I realized what I like about reading some o...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24340868">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[As always, Sayers has conceived a witty, twisty mystery. In this case, a surly artist is murdered, and there are six suspects who have a motive and equally poor alibis. Five of them are red herrings, and one is the real murderer. Will Lord Peter get to the bottom of the mystery? Well, of course he w...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/16093133">more...</a>]]></body>
