Mystery writer Harriet Vane, recovering from an unhappy love affair and its aftermath, seeks solace on a barren beach -- deserted but for the body of a bearded young man with his throat cut.

From the moment she photographs the corpse, which soon disappears with the tide, she is puzzled by a mystery that might have been suicide, murder or a political plot.

With the appearance of her dear friend Lord Peter Wimsey, she finds a reason for detective pursuit -- as only the two of them can pursue it.

Evaluation About Books Have His Carcase (Lord Peter Wimsey #8)

I would say another Lord Peter mystery, but its more accurate to say, a Sayers book, marking the transitional point in the series where we stop having Lord Peter mysteries. And start having Peter-and-Harriet books, I mean.Not as enjoyable as I was expecting. Peter and Harriet are, of course, rubbing along very complexly here, with suppressed romantic sentiment (mostly Peter, but not all) and resentment (mostly Harriet, but not all). There is only one real eruption between them; the rest of the

Additional review from 1/13/20 ...since we have devoted a great deal of time and thought to the case on the assumption that it was a murder, it's a convenience to know that the assumption is probably correct.~Have His Carcase (1932) by Dorothy L. SayersAs I mention in my previous review (HERE), the Lord Peter mysteries are comfort reads for me. I have read them numerous times and enjoy them thoroughly each time. It has been nine years since I last read this one (before Mount TBR or my Vintage

Harriet Vane is going on a walking-tour of the coasts when she stumbles across the throat-slit corpse of Paul Alexis Goldschmidt. Realizing the sea is coming in for high tide and threatens the crime scene, she collects evidence and photographs and hikes her way to phone the policeand the press because she's well aware of how the story could be spun if she doesn't get ahead of it. Her only mistake: the press rat her out to Lord Peter Wimsey who arrives at the coastal village the next day, ready

This is my least favorite of the Harriet books - the mystery feels almost needlessly complex, and Harriet and Peter don't interact enough (though the few interactions, especially the fight, are fabulously done).

Where I got the book: my bookshelf. Continuing my re-read of the Wimsey books.The plot: novelist Harriet Vane takes a walking vacation along the south coast of England to work on the plot of her latest murder mystery, but finds the body of a young man instead. Her suitor Lord Peter Wimsey is quickly on the scene, but the investigators are puzzled. All the signs seem to point to a particular perpetrator, but his alibi for the time of death is rock solid. Something is wrong with the picture--but

You can call me Wimsy cuz Im obsessed with Harriet Vane

After her highly-publicized near-conviction in the murder trial of her former lover (in Strong Poison), mystery writer Harriet Vane decides to get away from it all by taking a solitary walking tour in the countryside. While lunching on the beach, she stumbles upon a corpse. There are no one else's footprints in the sand, but other evidence suggests this was not suicide...Harriet doesn't want to ask Lord Peter, who cleared her name once before, to do it a second time, but he shows up anyway.
