Barbara Vine (Ruth Rendell's darker alter ego) delivers a masterclass in psychological suspense with this haunting tale. When human bones are discovered in an animal cemetery, long -buried secrets from a golden summer in the 1970s begin to surface. What follows is a slowly tightening noose of guilt, memory, and moral consequence. Vine's prose is elegant and unsettling, building dread with every page turn. Perfect for readers who love their crime fiction literary, atmospheric, and deeply unsettling. Show more
