Lord Peter Wimsey: Issue #8
When junior copywriter Victor Dean dies from a fall down the iron staircase at Pym's Publicity, a posh London ad agency, Lord Peter Wimsey goes undercover to investigate. Before his tragic demise, the victim had tried to warn Mr. Pym, the firm's owner, about some scandalous behavior involving his employees.
Posing as a novice copywriter, Wimsey discovers that Dean was in with an unsavory crowd of Bright Young People whose recreational habits link them to the criminal underworld. The garish daylit world of Adman Archetypes contrasts weirdly with the nightmare world of gaslit flares, drugs and passion. A slugged reporter – a mysterious powder – too many ‘accidental’ deaths all twine into the mystery as Winsey follows the faint and tangled trail of clues to solve the cryptic puzzle that baffles even Scotland Yard. Death stalks the halls at Pym’s – and someone knows that Wimsey is just not playing cricket.
