Reviews
"Another exemplary product of Rendell's fertile imagination. Delivers what mystery lovers want. Above all, fascination." The Washington Post Book World "Rendell builds plots the way the Romans built bridges, erecting graceful, arching affairs that soar high because they are sunk deep and cost a human life or two." The New York Times Book Review "A neat little microcosm of the Rendell universe, in which innocence and experience, the macabre and playful, the sadistic and romantic, all rub shoulders . . . before erupting into a kind of spontaneously lethal combustion." The Boston Globe "Disquieting, compelling . . . Rendell is a literary Hitchcock, coming at stories from unexpected angles." Chicago Tribune "Rendell terrorizes with the subtle authority of a cat burglar in the night." San Francisco Chronicle "Whether she's writing as herself or under the pseudonym Barbara Vine, Rendell is never boring. Adam and Eve is no exception." USA Today "A true page-turner, with a haunting ending that stayed with me long after I had read the final sentences." St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Rendell's genius is to create characters so vivid they live beyond the frame of the novel. She pushes the ordinary to the point of the bizarre while remaining consistently believable." Publishers Weekly "Rendell writes with such elegance and restraint, with such a literate voice and an insightful mind, that she transcends the mystery genre and achieves something almost sublime." Los Angeles Times "Madly absorbing . . . Rendell's characters are fully drawn, and we become completely caught up in their struggles." Booklist "Ruth Rendell is, unequivocally, the most brilliant mystery novelist of our times." Patricia Cornwell, "Another exemplary product of Rendell's fertile imagination.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • One of her very best

    For fans of Rendell's often harrowing psychological thrillers like "Live Flesh" or "The Bridesmaid," let me start by saying she takes a somewhat lighter touch in this novel. Dashes of delightfully low-key humor pepper this book, and I found myself laughing out loud occasionally. However, the underlying subject matter is as disturbing as we have come to expect from this great writer. The characterizations are superb. You may be driven to distraction by one of the main characters' seemingly endless handwashings and baths, but this person suffers from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (and, as it turns out, other mental problems as well) and so we experience what she experiences. We are introduced to quite a number of people as the plot thickens and the connections between them become ...
