Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1.3 x 9.3 x 6.5 Inches; 352 pages; The first young woman murdered had a bite mark on her neck, prompting the media to dub her killer ?The Rottweiler.? As the number of killings grows to two, three, and beyond, that nickname sticks, even though it has become clear that the original bite was incidental. The Rottweiler is a serial garroter, distinguished by his habit of taking a small trinket from each victim as a macabre souvenir.The strangled young women all lived in the same ethnically diverse London neighborhood near Lisson Grove, so it is here that the police focus their investigation. Soon their suspicions lead them to an antiques shop, where items taken from the victims start turning up amid the clutter. As we get acquainted with the odd assortment of characters who work in and pass through the shop, we sense that one of them will be the Rottweiler?s next victim.unless the meticulous killer makes an uncharacteristic mistake. Ruth Rendell is in top form here as she deftly propels the narrative, alternating between the inner life of a compulsive killer and the daily affairs of those who live nearby, unknowing yet somehow aware of the unnerving shadow of his presence.?Ruth Rendell has written some of the best novels of the twentieth century.? ?Frances Fyfield?Rendell?s clear, shapely prose casts the mesmerizing spell of the confessional.? ?The New Yorker.

Cloth. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. Very slight shelf wear to edges of D/J. The first girl had a bite mark on her neck, but the police traced the DNA to her boyfriend. Nevertheless, when the tabloids got hold of the story, they called the killer 'The Rottweiler', and the name stuck. The latest body was discovered very near Inex Ferry's antique shop in Marylebone. Someone spotted a shadowy figure running away past the statin, but couldn't say for sure if it was a man or a woman. There were only two other clues. The murderer seemed to have a preference for strangling his victims and them removing something personal - like a cigarette lighter or a necklace.Since her actor husband died, too early into their marriage, Inez supplemented her modest income by taking in tenants above the shop. The unpredictably obsessive activities of 'The Rottweiler' would exert a profound influence on this heterogeneous little community, especially when the suspicion began to emerge that one of them might be a homicidal maniac. 342 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
