A worthy attempt at filling Sayers� s (sensible) shoes; her writing style fits the bill, and her story is competent enough. Peter was sadly missed, but Harriet taking centre stage was appreciated, and the cameos by Bunter, St George, the Dowager Duchess and a vastly improved not to say redeemed Denver give the story life. She is, of course, writing with the benefit of hindsight and thus cheating, and her language slips occasionally, but overall this is excellent.
