A Sleeping Life

di Ruth Rendell (Autore)

Baker George (Narratore)

HarperCollins, 2017

The body found under the hedge was that of a middle-aged woman, biggish and gaunt. The grey eyes were wide and staring, and in them Detective Chief Inspector Wexford thought he saw a sardonic gleam, a glare, even in death, of scorn. But that must have been his imagination, and imagination was almost all he had to go on The body found under the hedge was that of a middle-aged woman, biggish and gaunt. The grey eyes were wide and staring, and in them Detective Chief Inspector Wexford thought he saw a sardonic gleam, a glare, even in death, of scorn. But that must have been his imagination, and imagination was almost all he had to go on. The woman was a stranger. Her handbag held little more than three keys on a ring and forty-two pounds in a new wallet. There was nothing to give him her address, her occupation or even her identity – let alone any clues that might lead to her killer. The woman was dead, but, as Wexford knew only too well, death, by murder is, in a way, not an end but a beginning… In A Sleeping Life, Ruth Rendell, a top author, delivers a mystery that is both compelling and suspenseful. As a Sunday Times bestselling author, Rendell's skill is evident in this bestselling book. For fans of P. D. James (An Unsuitable Job for a Woman), Ann Cleeves (The Dark Wives), Elly Griffiths (The Man in Black and Other Stories), Anthony Horowitz (The Twist of a Knife), and J. R. Ellis (The Canal Murders).
