{"product_id":"books-a-spot-of-folly-by-ruth-rendell","title":"A Spot of Folly","description":"New and uncollected tales of murder, mischief, magic and madness.   Ruth Rendell was an acknowledged master of psychological suspense: these are ten (and a quarter) of her most chillingly compelling short stories, collected here together for the first time.    In these tales, a businessman boasts about cheating on his wife, only to find the tables turned. A beautiful country rectory reverberates to the echo of a historical murder. A compulsive liar acts on impulse, only to be lead inexorably to disaster. And a wealthy man finds there is more to his wife's kidnapping than meets the eye.  Atmospheric, gripping and never predictable, this is Ruth Rendell at her inimitable best.   The stories are: Never Sleep in a Bed Facing a Mirror; A Spot of Folly; The Price of Joy; The Irony of Hate; Digby's Wives; The Haunting of Shawley Rectory; A Drop Too Much; The Thief; The Long Corridor of Time; In the Time of his Prosperity; and Trebuchet.  Introduction from Sophie Hannah.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53670139298065,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781788160155.jpg?v=1781510725","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-a-spot-of-folly-by-ruth-rendell","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
