Описание: Previously uncollected and unpublished short stories from a master of psychological suspense. Introduction from Sophie Hannah.
Описание: A spine-tingling anthology by the New York Times-bestselling author and master of "psychological insight . . . and, not infrequently, teeth-chattering terror" (The New York Times).
These never-before-collected stories by Ruth Rendell--the three-time Edgar Award-winning mistress of dark suspense and one of the most celebrated thriller writers of the twentieth century--are "deliciously riveting, all the more so because Rendell's extraordinary ability to delve coolly and forensically into the dustiest nooks of the human psyche is amplified, not diminished, by the short story form. . . . Often the reader is taken by the throat" (The Guardian).
In "The Thief," a chance encounter with a stranger triggers the most destructive impulses in a vindictive pathological liar. A family shares an unnamable feeling of dread and a necessary denial to make it through the night in "Trebuchet." In the title story, a caddish boor can't help but boast of his infidelities. A historic murder weighs heavy on the unholy reputation of a quaint local landmark in "The Haunting of Shawley Rectory." And in "Never Sleep in a Bed Facing a Mirror," Rendell delivers a masterstroke of gasp-inducing brevity.
Here are tales of mystery, madness, terrible crimes, and chilling perdition, all dispatched with a wit so knife-edged and deviousness, so impeccably cool that it's little wonder Joyce Carol Oates hails Ruth Rendell as "one of the finest practitioners of her craft."

Описание: A spectacularly creepy and macabre tale ("Entertainment Weekly") of blackmail, murders both accidental and opportunistic, and of one life s fateful unraveling from Ruth Rendell, one of the most remarkable novelists of her generation ("People"), writing at her most mesmerizing. Rendell completed "Dark Corners" shortly before her death in 2015. When his father dies, Carl Martin inherits a house in an increasingly rich and trendy London neighborhood. Cash poor, Carl rents the upstairs room and kitchen to the first person he interviews, Dermot McKinnon. That is mistake number one. Mistake number two is keeping the bizarre collection of homeopathic and alternative cures that his father left in the medicine cabinet, including a stash of controversial diet pills. Mistake number three is selling fifty of those diet pills to a friend, who is then found dead. Dermot seizes a nefarious opportunity and begins to blackmail Carl, refusing to pay rent, and creepily invading Carl s space. Ingeniously weaving together two storylines that finally merge in a shocking turn, Ruth Rendell describes one man s spiral into darkness and murder as he falls victim to a diabolical foe he cannot escape. This is brilliant psychological suspense that gets under your skin. As Stephen King says, No one surpasses Ruth Rendell when it comes to stories of obsession, instability, and malignant coincidence. "Dark Corners," her last book, ranks among her best ("The Washington Post")."

Описание: INCLUDES AN EXCERPT OF RENDELL S FINAL NOVEL, "DARK CORNERS" From crime legend Ruth Rendell, a psychologically intriguing novel about an old murder that sends shockwaves across a group of astonishingly carnal and appetiteful elderly friends: Refined, probing, and intelligent never less than a pleasure ("USA TODAY"). In the waning months of the second World War, a group of children discover a tunnel in their neighborhood outside London. For that summer of 1944, the subterranean space becomes their secret garden, where the friends play games, tell their fortunes, and perform for each other. Six decades later, construction workers make a grisly discovery beneath a house on the same land: a tin box containing two skeletal hands, one male and one female. As the hands make national news, the friends come together once again, to recall their long ago days for a detective. Then the police investigation sputters, and the threads holding their friendship together begin to unravel. Is the truth buried amid the tangled relationships of these aging men and women and their memories? Will it emerge before it s too late? Stephen King says, no one surpasses Ruth Rendell when it comes to stories of obsession, instability, and malignant coincidence. In "The Girl Next Door" yet another gem ("The Washington Post") Rendell brilliantly shows that the choices people make, and the emotions behind them, remain as potent in late life as they were in youth. Rendell s wit, always mordant, has never been sharper than when she skewers patronizing assumptions about the elderly ("Chicago Tribune")."
