Sayers' writing style is characterized by its sharp wit, intricate plot twists, and deep character development, making 'Have His Carcase' a page-turning read that offers both entertainment and intellectual stimulation. Dorothy L. Sayers, a renowned English crime writer, drew inspiration from her own experiences working in advertising and as a copywriter.
