Murder Must Advertise (Lord Peter Wimsey, #10)

“Work is the only thing that keeps one from thinking.”

Wimsey going undercover as a copywriter feels strangely relatable. Even a fancy lord gets tired of the office grind and deadlines.

The way the ad agency staff treats rumors is chilling. One person falls down the stairs and everyone just keeps typing.

“Tell me what you want, and I will tell you why you want it.”

Advertising makes people want things they never knew existed. It turns out we are all just targets for a clever slogan.

Seeing Wimsey balance his real life with his work persona is exhausting. He almost loses himself in the fake office politics.
