Sandor is a wonderful storyteller, and little Joe is ready to listen. The power of the educated over the simple is horribly clear in this disturbing and unusual relationship. As Sandor’s motivation both for rescuing little Joe and then for weaving his spell of words becomes clear, the darkness surrounding him is too much for them both, and for the beautiful ex-model sequestered in her Suffolk mansion by an obsessive husband.

A net of fear, greed, love, and desire closes around them in a landscape that heightens the contrast between man and the natural world.

Found this to be just an average story . Although I did finish storyline just rambled along. The narration was the best thing as bout it.

I’m supposing Ruth Rendell / Barbara Vine never won any literature awards - not any high brow ones anyway - as someone who wrote popular fiction but she is such a good storyteller, her prose is intelligent and her characterisation is so engaging. Her writing is so prolific and diverse, she is my favourite mystery and crime writer.

This crime mystery held me all the way to the end, Barbara has delivered again, you won’t be disappointed.
