I notice that Dorothy L. Sayers died in 1957, which means that her stuff will be eligible for PG Australia next year ("Lord Peter Wimsey" stories). There are a few out-of-copyright Agatha Christies I could tackle too.
Who am I missing? There must be some detective authors who died before 1950 or so, mustn't there? Any thoughts?
All suggestions gratefully received!

i am also a huge fan of detective stories so any you want to do are most welcome, I will see if i can think of any which are not already available here...
i would like to make a
special request for Dorothy L. Sayers, she's absolutely brilliant (i have read all of them but only in french, i would love to have the original versions !! only "whose body" is available so far, that i know of), and also Agatha Christie...
If you could make these available in
imp format (for the eb1150) that would be brilliant ; if you can't but have the texts available in html or text format,
i could format them in imp and post them, just let me know.
