2023 book 100

 Dorothy Sayers' Unnatural Death

This Peter Wimsey mystery centers on the death of an elderly woman with cancer, but her doctor is convinced she was murdered by her niece. Except nothing suspicious turns up on the autopsy, and everyone thinks the doctor is wrong. Except Peter, who is on the case! With the assistance of a hilarious new associate, Miss Climpson! Very fun and satisfying story, minus the n-word being dropped a bunch of times and a couple bits of antisemitism. Gotta love those 1920s mysteries.
