I owe a greater debt of gratitude to nineveh-uk than I can ever to express. She showed devotion above and beyond the call of duty in performing close reading on this monster, thereby saving me from some absolute howlers; and without her incomparable ear for the nuances of the English language, especially as spoken by Lord Peter and Bunter, and her inexhaustible knowledge of the Wimsey canon, the story would have been very much poorer.
