A charmingly suave and sadly fictional character solving impossibly challenging mysteries in Dorothy Sayers novels. Born in 1890, a stately gentleman measuring 5'9'' in height, with a well-styled mop of sandy-blonde hair and a monocle delicately perched upon his nose. As well as being a firstrate detective (and an amateur at that!), Lord Peter is an insatiable bibliophile, delights in all sorts of music and enjoys a cricket match as much as the next Oxford grad. Is often seen dining at the Egotists' Club in London.
