    Kriminalassistent Wexford og hans kollega Burden gruer for den kommende musikfestival, hvor teenagere og hippier vil strømme til langvejsfra. Man ved aldrig, hvad der kan ske til en beatfestival! Festivallen når dog dårligt nok at komme i gang, før en ung kvinde bliver fundet myrdet i kalkbruddet. Wexford må fokusere på mordsagen, men samtidig er der noget ved festivallen, der tyder på, at kvindens mord kunne have forbindelse til nogle af festivaldeltagerne. Det bliver en kringlet sag for den garvede politimand.Wexfordserien er en række krimier skrevet af den verdenskendte krimiforfatterinde Ruth Rendell, der har kriminalassistenten Reginald Wexford som hovedperson og følger ham i hans jagt på kyniske kriminelle og maniske mordere.Ruth Rendell (1930-2015) var en britisk forfatter, der primært var kendt for sine krimiromaner, og i særdeleshed for romanserien om kriminalassistent Reginald Wexford og hans makker, Mike Burden.

    Robert Hathall inviterer sin gnavne, gamle mor på besøg for, at hendes forhold til hans kone skal blive bedre, men det er ganske forgæves. Moren finder nemlig sin svigerdatter kvalt i soveværelset, inden hun overhovedet har nået at fornærme hende! Kriminalassistent Wexford bliver sat på sagen, og helt fra starten mistænker han ægtemanden uden at kunne komme med en konkret grund dertil. Han bliver igen og igen opfordret til at droppe mistanken til Robert – der er jo ingen beviser. Har Wexford stirret sig blind på den forkerte, mens den skyldige godter sig over at gå fri?Ruth Rendell (1930-2015) var en britisk forfatter, der primært var kendt for sine krimiromaner, og i særdeleshed for romanserien om kriminalassistent Reginald Wexford og hans makker, Mike Burden.

    After a truffle-hunting dog unearths a human hand instead of a precious fungus, Chief Inspector Wexford and his team proceed to interrogate everyone who lives nearby to see if they can turn up a match for the errant appendage among the eighty-five people who have disappeared over the past decade in this part of England. Then, when a second body is discovered nearby, Wexford experiences a feeling that's become a rarity for the veteran policeman: surprise. As Wexford painstakingly moves to resolve these multiple mysteries, long-buried secrets are brought to daylight, and Ruth Rendell once again proves why she has been hailed as our greatest living mystery writer.

    The search for the body commenced. Then the victim walked into town.Behind the picture-postcard façade of Kingsmarkham lies a community rife with violence, betrayal, and a taste for vengeance. When sixteen-year-old Lizzie Cromwell reappears no one knows where she has been, including Lizzie herself. Inspector Wexford thinks she was with a boyfriend. But the disappearance of a three-year-old girl casts a more ominous light on events. And when the public's outrage turns toward a recently released pederast and another suspect turns up stabbed to death, Wexford must try to unravel the mystery before any more bodies appear, and before a mob of local vigilantes metes out a rough justice to their least favorite suspect. In Harm Done, the violence is near at hand, and evil lies just a few doors down the block.

    Rhoda Comfrey's death seemed unremarkable; the real mystery was her life.In A Sleeping Life, master mystery writer Ruth Rendell unveils an elaborate web of lies and deception painstakingly maintained by a troubled soul. A wallet found in Comfrey's handbag leads Inspector Wexford to Mr. Grenville West, a writer whose plots revel in the blood, thunder, and passion of dramas of old; whose current whereabouts are unclear; and whose curious secretary--the plain Polly Flinders--provides the Inspector with more questions than answers. And when a second Grenville West comes to light, Wexford faces a dizzying array of possible scenarios--and suspects--behind the Comfrey murder. Brilliantly entertaining, exceptionally crafted, A Sleeping Life evokes the dark realities, half-truths, and flights of fancy that constitute a life.

    The bed was neatly made, and the woman on top neatly strangled.According to all accounts, Angela Hathall was deeply in love with her husband and far too paranoid to invite an unknown person into their home. So who managed to gain entry and strangle her without a struggle? That is the problem facing Inspector Wexford in Shake Hands Forever. Perhaps it was the mystery woman who left her fingerprints on the Hathall's bathtub? Perhaps it was Angela's husband who lied about a stolen library book? And why was the Hathall home, usually so unkempt, exqisitely clean the day of Angela's death? Then a neighbor--friendly, knowing, disarmingly beautiful--offers Wexford her assistance. And what begins as a rather tricky case turns into an obsession that threatens to destroy the Inspector's career--as well as his marriage. Maddeningly addictive, smart and surprising, Shake Hands Forever showcases Ruth Rendell at the height of her storytelling powers.
