Description - From Doon With Death by Ruth Rendell

The first novel from award-winning crime writer Ruth Rendell, and the first book in the bestselling Detective Chief Inspector Wexford series. From Doon With Death is the debut work of the crime legend who wrote classic detective fiction and gripping psychological thrillers including End in Tears and Thirteen Steps Down. Perfect for collectors and new fans of Rendell alike.

The first book to feature the classic crime-solving detective, Chief Inspector Wexford.

An ordinary life. An extraordinary death.

The trampled grass led to the body of Margaret Parsons.

With no useful clues and a victim known only for her mundane life, Chief Inspector Wexford is baffled until he discovers Margaret's dark secret - a collection of rare books, each inscribed from a secret lover and signed only as 'Doon'.

Who is Doon? And could the answer hold the key to Wexford solving his first case?

'If crime fiction is currently in rude good health, its practitioners striving to better the craft and keep it fresh, vibrant and relevant, this is in no small part thanks to Ruth Rendell.' Ian Rankin
