Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane are so much Peak Romance that it seems unfair to hold other authors to Sayers' standards!
(I knew that Alleyn and Agatha Troy were endgame when I picked up Artists in Crime, but I couldn't help lowkey shipping her and Katti Bostock instead.)
I think because Alleyn knows/likes the people involved more and as a result I cared more.
Ooh, that's interesting. I think that's in some ways the reason why I didn't find the characters as intriguing as, say, the theater troupe in Vintage Murder or the art students in Artists in Crime??
