Description
In a quiet London neighborhood near Paddington Station, a small antiques shop becomes the unlikely hub for a tightening web of fear and suspicion. As young girls are murdered, the case takes on a chilling identity—“the Rottweiler”—after bite marks link the first victim to a pattern no one can ignore. Through the shop’s owner and the people who drift in and out of her orbit, the novel explores how secrets, obsessions, and everyday routines can mask danger. Ruth Rendell’s sharp psychological insight and suspenseful, character-driven storytelling turn a local mystery into a haunting study of violence and the unsettling proximity of evil.
