Reading Rendell is such an interesting trip into the misogyny that pervaded not so long ago
I’m fascinated at reading the Wexford books. It reminds of how women were treated, thought of and dismissed. One black character introduced in this book and the character patronised to the point Of racism. With absolutely no psychological training the incest is dismissed out of hand and the accuser labeled psychotic. This book does not age
well.

Rendell dates somewhat
Good basic story but whereas Agatha Christie had such a light sparkling humorous hand and Ruth dishes out her moral opinions barely disguised as discovery of her characters. She’s totally out of her depth with incest.

Rendell's Twists Again
Reliable Rendell twisted tales with well-drawn characters written into dramatic tales. A great, exciting read.

Still great
i strongly recommend this series to anyone who doesn't mind a return to the 80s. The cultural attitudes are of their time but Wexford is a great character who navigates changing views/feminism with a capacity for self reflection that is no doubt still rare in the contemporary police force (and in Simisola there is also a well handled moment where he becomes aware of unconscious racism).
The writing and the treatment of human psychology is outstanding -- unmatched by most contemporary police procedurals. Lots going on in this one, which ends with an impressive twist.
