Oh, you definitely want to read The Nine Tailors, also Murder Must Advertise! But I would definitely recommend reading them all, starting with Whose Body, though opinions in this household differ on whether it's *really* necessary to read Five Red Herrings. Whose Body is very important not just because it's the first one, but because of crucial Peter-Bunter h/c. Though be warned: although the *point* of the book is anti-antisemitic, the level of typical British antisemitism can be hard to stomach.
In case you weren't aware, Sayers is available on fadedpage. We (spouse, child living with us, & self) have read them all, many times, to the point of destruction of most of our mass market paperback editions. They've been on Mr Dr Science's compulsive re-read list since the pandemic began--he'd read them all multiple times before, but I think he's read the whole series 5 or 6 times since March 2020, and is toward the end of another right now.
Don't forget the short stories!
Personally I do NOT consider Thrones, Dominations to be canon.
