"Death in particular," writes Dorothy Sayers in "The Third Omnibus of Crime," "seems to provide the minds of the Anglo-Saxon race with a greater fund of innocent amusement than any other single subject, and when it is occasioned or accompanied by Sin in its more repugnant shapes, the fun grows faster and more furious. Let the murder turn out to be no murder, but a mere accident or suicide, and letters pour from indignant readers."
