Jill Paton Walsh Books in Order

Peter and Harriet return to Oxford when Peter is appointed 'Visitor' to settle a dispute at a fictional college. When fellows of the college start dying, the couple must unravel a mystery involving ancient manuscripts and academic rivalries.

In 1951, the new Lord Attenbury asks Peter for help proving the ownership of a family heirloom. The investigation prompts Peter to recount his very first case from 1921, weaving a narrative that spans thirty years of Wimsey history.

Set during World War II, this sequel finds Harriet Vane living in the country at Talboys. When a young woman is murdered during an air-raid drill, Harriet must work with the local police—and a visiting Peter—to catch a killer in a village full of secrets.

Begun by Sayers in 1936 and completed by Walsh, this novel sees Peter and Harriet settling into married life in London. Their happiness is tested when they become involved in the murder of a theatrical producer's wife against the backdrop of King Edward VIII's abdication crisis.
