"The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club" by Dorothy L. Sayers is a mystery novel published in 1928. When a wealthy elderly woman dies, her fortune hinges on whether she outlived her brother by even hours. The general is found dead in his London club chair, but determining when he died becomes crucial—and suspicious. Lord Peter Wimsey must untangle a web of concealment, false alibis, and family desperation at the Bellona Club, where the line between natural death and murder proves dangerously thin.
