In the history of mystery novels, Sayers is a great name: together with Agatha Christie and Josephine Tey, she is known as the "Three Heroines of Mystery"; she is also the only great writer in history to have five works selected into the prestigious list of the top 100 mystery novels in the United Kingdom and the United States.
