Edgar Award Finalist: In London, a missing child unites three mothers in grief, madness, and murder. When Benet Archdale was a young girl in North London, her mother, Mopsa, made her nervous. The woman was unsound, and posed ever-present dangers. Yet Benet understood her sickness and forgave her threats.

But it&’s not only the sudden death of Benet&’s two-year-old son that shakes her safe world. It&’s the past. Mopsa has returned to be at her inconsolable daughter&’s side.

Authorities fear the search can&’t end well. As Benet and Mopsa are drawn into the disappearance, the secrets, lies, and desperation of three mothers will converge—by chance and by design. For them, it&’s a crime that is at once a delusion, an escape, and a nightmare. &“No one surpasses Ruth Rendell when it comes to stories of obsession, instability, and malignant coincidence,&” says Stephen King of this New York Times–bestselling author, and all three come into play in this novel, a winner of the Crime Writers&’ Association Silver Dagger Award.

A New York Times Notable Book for 2021.

"We wish you'd get rid of what you've got here, sir," he observed, digging doggedly. "Nothing'll grow right with them here." "Shrubs " said the Squire, laughing. "You don't call the peacock trees shrubs, do you? Fine tall trees -- you ought to be proud of them." "Ill weeds grow apace," observed the gardener. "Weeds can grow as houses when somebody plants them." Then he added: "Him that sowed tares in the Bible, Squire." "Oh, blast your --" began the Squire, and then replaced the more apt and alliterative word "Bible" by the general word "superstition." He was himself a robust rationalist, but he went to church to set his tenants an example. Of what, it would have puzzled him to say.
