Review
"Rendell understands the nature of evil... Her gimlet intelligence eschews compassion; reading this collection is similar to being harangued by one of her unstable creations who behind your back, sharpens the knitting needle." (The Guardian)
"Each [story] is like a condensed, polished Rendell novel." (Daily Telegraph)
"Rendell's mastery of the short story is unsurpassed." (The Times)
"Ruth Rendell, like all the great creators of crime fiction, keeps her pact with the reader. There’s a murder mystery, there are clues, there is a solution. It’s a very satisfying read" (Giles Brandreth)
"Here are the fears that haunt us, the nightmarish urban myths of our time... One of the most remarkable talents writing today" (Jane Jakeman, Independent)
