Westminster: interior of London tram, lower deck, with driver. Notice about "London's Last Trams" displayed. Houses of Parliament (Westminster Palace) in background. In Clouds of Witness, a taxi with its front tyre shot out spins out of control into a tram parked at this very spot.Synopsis from Amazon:
Rustic old Riddlesdale Lodge was a Wimsey family retreat filled with country pleasures and the thrill of the hunt -- until the game turned up human and quite dead. He lay among the chrysanthemums, wore slippers and a dinner jacket and was Lord Peter's brother-in-law-to-be. His accused murderer was Wimsey's own brother, and if murder set all in the family wasn't enough to boggle the unflappable Lord Wimsey, perhaps a few twists of fate would be -- a mysterious vanishing midnight letter from Egypt, a grieving fiancee with suitcase in hand, and a bullet destined for one very special Wimsey.
