A Spot of Folly: Ten and a Quarter New Tales of Murder and Mayhem
by Ruth RendellA spine-tingling anthology by the New York Times–bestselling author and master of &“psychological insight . . . and, not infrequently, teeth-chattering terror&” (The New York Times). These never-before-collected stories by Ruth Rendell—the three-time Edgar Award–winning mistress of dark suspense and one of the most celebrated thriller writers of the twentieth century—are &“deliciously riveting, all the more so because Rendell&’s extraordinary ability to delve coolly and forensically into the dustiest nooks of the human psyche is amplified, not diminished, by the short story form. . . . Often the reader is taken by the throat&” (The Guardian). In &“The Thief,&” a chance encounter with a stranger triggers the most destructive impulses in a vindictive pathological liar. A family shares an unnamable feeling of dread and a necessary denial to make it through the night in &“Trebuchet.&” In the title story, a caddish boor can&’t help but boast of his infidelities. A historic murder weighs heavy on the unholy reputation of a quaint local landmark in &“The Haunting of Shawley Rectory.&” And in &“Never Sleep in a Bed Facing a Mirror,&” Rendell delivers a masterstroke of gasp-inducing brevity. Here are tales of mystery, madness, terrible crimes, and chilling perdition, all dispatched with a wit so knife-edged and deviousness, so impeccably cool that it&’s little wonder Joyce Carol Oates hails Ruth Rendell as &“one of the finest practitioners of her craft.&”
