Strong Poison: A Lord Peter Wimsey Mystery by Dorothy L. Sayers – in 2 Parts (02 October 1999) [RadioRip (mp3)]


Lord Peter Wimsey has fallen in love – although she hasn’t met him, yet. There’s the small problem of her incarceration, to begin with. (The object of Lord Peter’s affections – Harriet Vane -- is on trial for murdering her lover.)

The clock is ticking. The case looks absolutely hopeless. He’s got to do something – but what? And how? Luckily, being a crime novelist, she has a few ideas of her own…


There’s another version of this Dorothy L. Sayers novel on TB, with Ian Carmichael as Lord Peter Wimsey. And although Carmichael is a wonderful actor and a darling man, I thought you’d like to hear this version, starring Simon Russell Beale. It’s a bit like great music – while different conductors interpret the same work differently, they all help to illuminate the genius of the original.
