Rezension zu „The Bridesmaid “
"A young man refurbishes suburban homes, lives with his mother and sister, becomes obsessed with a garden nymph statue and then dangerously infatuated with its living lookalike. This relationship is emotional, erotic and vampiric, with him as the victim" Guardian "Every sentence is appallingly, shockingly convincing ... a memorably harrowing journey through sick and weak minds, written with a skill that makes it relentlessly gripping" The Times "To read her at her best - and The Bridesmaid is perhaps her best book - is like stepping on to a trundling country bus and feeling it turn into a roller coaster" Sunday Times "If Ruth Rendell were not slotted into the category of writer of mystery novels, she would have won the Booker long ago" Books of the Year, Evening Standard "Ruth Rendell, like all the great creators of crime fiction, keeps her pact with the reader. There's a murder mystery, there are clues, there is a solution. It's a very satisfying read" Giles Brandreth
