More enjoyable time spent with Lord Peter Whimsey, Bunter, Parker and, new to the series, Miss Climpsen. Climpsen is a very spritely and adventurous detective in her own right who does much of the leg work for Peter. All the characters display their usual charm and witty dialoge that make Sayers such an enjoyable read.
An Unnatural Death shows some excellent pacing as the book dramically escalates toward it's final scene. this is a marked improvement over the previous book in the series which featured a somewhat cumbersome and unsatisfing ending.
