A Guilty Thing Surprised by Ruth Rendell

3.0

Not a bad read. Ms. Rendell apparently improves over time with each subsequent writing. One of the nice things about her writing style is that she incorporates a number of obscure adjectives which is wonderful in expanding one's vocabulary. The story itself was full of twists and turns. The ending was completely unexpected (at least by me) and it actually provoked a combination of sadness and repulsion at the same time. Definitely worth the read. A bonus in that it is a short novel which means it will not cannibalize all your time.
