The body was on the pointed rocks alongside the stream. The artist might have fallen from the cliff where he was painting, but there are too many suspicious elements -- particularly the medical evidence that proves he'd been dead nearly half a day, though eyewitnesses had seen him alive a scant hour earlier. And then there are the six prime suspects -- all of them artists, all of whom wished him dead. Five are red herrings, but one has created a masterpiece of murder that baffles everyone, including Lord Peter Wimsey. 1/8 The Body In The Burn Lord Peter Wimsey's Scottish fishing is curtailed by the death of a local artist. His Lordship and faithful Bunter investigate. 2/8 Disappearances Lord Peter Wimsey investigates the death of a Scottish artist but the key suspects keep disappearing. 3/8 Bicycles Lord Peter Wimsey's investigations of the death of an artist are complicated by the disappearance of several bicycles. 4/8 Bunter Investigates Lord Peter Wimsey's faithful manservant, Bunter, takes the initiative in the investigation of the murder of a Scottish artist. 5/8 Alibis Lord Peter Wimsey sets about verifying the alibis of the key suspects in the murder of a Scottish artist. 6/8 Evidence Of A Commercial Traveller Lord Peter Wimsey pores over the evidence and sifts the clues to establish who murdered a Scottish artist. 7/8 Council Of War There are many theories in the case of a murdered Scottish artist, but Lord Peter Wimsey is the man to get to the bottom of it. 8/8 Reconstruction Lord Peter Wimsey and his 'council of war' reconstruct the final hours of a murdered Scottish artist.
