"Rendell’s psychological novels remain in a class of their own" (Susanna Yager, Sunday Telegraph)

"The web is spun with fiendish skill" (Observer)
"Domestic dramas exploding into deaths and murders - Threads are drawn tightly together in a lethal last pattern" (Sunday Times)
"One of the greatest novelists presently at work in our language... A writer whose work should be read by anyone who either enjoys a brilliant mystery – or distinguished literature" (Scott Turow)
