Ruth Rendell - Judgement in Stone

 





Ruth Rendell is one of the finest practitioners of crime fiction in its modern state, and is obviously full of hatred towards women. This novel really proves that, by telling a story about illiterate servant girl who comes to big house full of respectable people only to kill them all in the end. As always her prose is stylish and elegant and displays various shades of grey in people.
