Lord Peter Wimsey goes undercover at an ad agency to find out who
pitched a copywriter down a flight of stairs—“Delightful
reading” (The New York Times). The iron staircase at Pym’s
Publicity is a deathtrap, and no one in the advertising agency is
surprised when Victor Dean tumbles down it, cracking his skull along
the way. Dean’s replacement arrives just a few days later—a green
copywriter named Death Bredon. Though he displays a surprising talent
for the business of selling margarine, alarm clocks, and nerve tonics,
Bredon is not really there to write copy. In fact, he is really Lord
Peter Wimsey, and he has come to Pym’s in search of the man who
pushed Dean. As he tries to navigate the cutthroat world of London
advertising, Lord Peter uncovers a mystery that touches on catapults,
cocaine, and cricket. But how does one uncover a murderer in a
business where it pays to have no soul? Murder Must Advertise is
the 10th book in the Lord Peter Wimsey Mysteries, but you may enjoy
the series by reading the books in any order. This ebook features
an illustrated biography of Dorothy L. Sayers including rare images
from the Marion E. Wade Center at Wheaton College.
