About this title

Synopsis

Thirteen murder stories feature a jealous Siamese cat, a truffle-hunting pig, rebellious chickens, an elderly cockroach, a playful goat, and a brave rat.

Review

A border zone of the macabre, the disturbing, the not quite accidental...Highsmith achieves the effect of the occult without any recourse to supernatural machinery.

Mesmerizing...not to be recommended for the weak-minded and impressionable.
