She was one of the first women to graduate from Oxford University, in 1915, with class honors in modern languages. She published her first novel (Whose Body? published unabridged by Audio Partners and is also available from AudioBooks Online.) in 1923, introducing aristocratic sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey. During the last twenty years of her life, she wrote only scholarly works and spiritual introspection. Despite her scholarship, she is best known as "the Doyenne of the Golden Age of the Mystery." |
