Girl Next Door, Paperback/Ruth Rendell

The new psychological thriller from Rendell, set in Essex, partly before WWII and partly in the present day. When the bones of two severed hands are discovered in a box, an investigation begins into a long-buried crime. 'Ruth Rendell deals quite seamlessly with social issues. She's got a real grip on what makes people do things.' Val McDermid. Now in paperback.
