Lord Westholme

In the novel Appointment with Death, Lord Westholme was the husband of Lady Westholme. He had met his future wife onboard a ship crossing the Atlantic, back to England. His wife had persuaded him into politics, but after she saw that he lacked the talent she let him quit.

Lord Westholme is described as a "middle-aged, simple-minded peer", whose interests in life are hunting, shooting and fishing.

He doesn’t appear in the novel, but he is mentioned.
