this was Gaudy Night and should have been Have His Carcase.
Yes! That is exactly what I say about ACC, too. And the worst of it, for me, is that it's not even Gaudy Night - if it were Gaudy Night it would be predominantly in Ekaterin's voice and Miles wouldn't have tried to manipulate her throughout it. If it were GN, he'd be honest with her about what he wanted and he would let her decide what to do. His manipulations there, and Ekaterin's lack of voice throughout the rest of the series (despite the fact that she saves his life) make me really uncomfortable, and I often read the story as far as Komarr and no further.
