Bit of an exaggeration. Busman's Honeymoon is curtainfic, but it's also a decent locked room mystery which has a substantial emotional impact on Peter and Harriet - and we also see the repercussions it has on Miss Twitterton in particular.

Also, while Boyes owes a lot to Collicos (sp?), he and Sayers never actually slept together - and Boyes is emphatically not Jewish - he's a vicar's kid, which of course was Sayer's own background, and when Peter meets the vicar in question, he's portrayed as a pretty decent, sympathetic person who hopes that Harriet is innocent, and in general strikes me as another of Sayers' good country vicars who are based on her dad.

Which is fascinating, and perhaps suggests that Sayers' feelings towards the Collicos relationship, and her subsequent sexual relationship that led to the birth of her son, were more complicated and guilty than just taking fictional revenge on a useless ex boyfriend (though she was clearly very pissed off with him for marrying her successor). She's not just murdering Collicos, she's murdering an aspect of herself.
