In the desolate subterranean car park of the Barringdon shopping centre, Reg Wexford had been too preoccupied to notice anything out of the ordinary, just the time and a red car driving past him, rater too fast. Burden called him at home with the grim news later that evening. The woman had been attacked from behind, perhaps with a thin length of wire. Before Inspector Wexford can delve deeper into this curious homicide, he, too, faces death. And Burden, for a while conducting the investigation without the help of his chief's instinctive analytical genius, will blunder down a number of blind alleys. "The Veiled One" is dark, complex and full of surprises. Even by Ruth Rendell's superlative standards, this is probably the most exciting Inspector Wexford mystery to date.' ***'Ruth Rendell's mesmerizing ability to shock, chill and disturb is unmatched - The Times (Quote and general review quote taken from the front and back flaps of the dustwrapper respectively) ***First reprint of the true first edition, in its original dustwrapper, in very nice bright condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.***.
