From Library JournalThis Inspector Wexford duo debuted back-to-back in 1972. Murder finds the British sleuth defying doctor's orders and investigating the death of a young girl, while Dying (LJ 7/72) offers a baffling case of two kidnapped children. A double dose of Rendell is twice the fun. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. "Mystery writing of the highest order . . . durable, complex, and affectingly human."--The New York Times Book "If there were a craft guild for writers, I'd apprentice myself to Ruth Rendell."--Sue Grafton"Rendell is a master of the form."--Washington Post Book World"Ruth Rendell is the best mystery writer in the English-speaking world."--TimeFrom the Inside FlapWhat kind of a person would kidnap two children? That is the question that haunts Wexford when a five-year-old boy and a twelve-year-old girl disappear from the village of Kingsmarkham. When a child's body turns up at an abandoned country home one search turns into a murder investigation and the other turns into a race against time. Filled with pathos and terror, passion, bitterness, and loss, No More Dying Then is Rendell at her most chillingly astute. With her Inspector Wexford novels, Ruth Rendell, winner of the Mystery Writers of America Grand Master Award, has added layers of depth, realism and unease to the classic English mystery. For the canny, tireless, and unflappable policeman is an unblinking observer of human nature, whose study has taught him that under certain circumstances the most unlikely people are capable of the most appalling crimes. where can i read full books online for free No More Dying Then: An Inspector Wexford Mystery
