So, I can’t really write a review of this book. I found it pretty boring and almost instantly forgettable so didn’t even get half way through before abandoning it. I couldn’t really tell you anything about the plot, aside from the fact that they constantly refer back to the good old days, when a murder was something exceptional and people could leave their doors unlocked and blah blah blah. Something about a man with a weird skin discolouration. Ruth Rendell: Must try harder! Usually I love her books. Maybe I will take it on my next flight and enjoy it more, since that’s where I usually read her books.

Next I am on to Stepsisters, which I am SO excited about. It is the manuscript for Rupert James’ next book. Rupert James wrote the awesome (and filthy) Silk, which I highly recommend to anyone interested in backstabbing, bitches, fashion, sex and power struggles. Which is everyone, no?
