Who would garrote a middle-aged housewife and leave her body in the parking garage of a suburban shopping mall? Chief Inspector Wexford is no sooner on the case than a car bomb's explosion lands him in the hospital. It's now up to Mike Burden to step in and solve the case. He's got a suspect . . . but will he be able to make him talk?

Took me a solid 100 pages or so to warm up to it but man this Wexford is solid. Dorothy and Clifford are some of Rendell's best “psychological portraits”
