Synopsis
A lump of concrete dropped deliberately from a little stone bridge over a relatively unfrequented road kills the wrong person. The young woman in the car behind is spared. But only for a while... A few weeks later, George Marshalson lives every father's worst nightmare: he discovers the murdered body of his eighteen-year-old daughter on the side of the road. As a man with a strained father-daughter relationship himself, Wexford must struggle to keep his professional life as a detective separate from his personal life as husband and father. Particularly when a second teenage girl is murdered - a victim unquestionably linked to the first - and another family is shattered... The twentieth book to feature the classic crime-solving detective, Chief Inspector Wexford. This paperback book has 376 pages and measures: 18 x 11 x 2cm.

Review
'[Rendell] is unequalled in her ability to create amoral, unprincipled characters, then to make us pity them, until they do something terrible.' (The Observer)
'Rendell's gift for characterisation illuminates every interview with a range of suspects and makes it a pleasure to watch Wexford and burden at work.' (The Sunday Telegraph)
'End In Tears proved once again that no British novelist knows the heart's hungers like Ruth Rendell.' (New Statesman)
From the Publisher
The new Chief Inspector Wexford novel from the UK's best loved crime writer
