2023 book 105

 Dorothy Sayers' The Nine Tailors

This is an interesting one, since it takes place over the course of like a year, which is unusual in a mystery novel. The mystery itself involves a long-ago jewel theft and the discovery of an unknown body in the graveyard. There is also a lot of business involving bell-ringing and waterways. I will say I remembered most of how this played out, and usually it’s fun to see how the pieces come together, but it somehow wasn’t the case for this. I definitely liked it more the first time I read it.
