Description

When a respected headmistress is found murdered in the grounds of her local church, retired Chief Inspector Wexford is drawn into an investigation that proves as unsettling as it is complex. What begins as a seemingly contained crime soon exposes tensions surrounding faith, immigration, community identity, and long-held secrets. With her characteristic psychological insight and finely observed social detail, Ruth Rendell delivers a gripping mystery that explores the fault lines beneath ordinary suburban life.
