The house of stairs - Barbara Vine

-

 



2nd book read.

Barbara Vine was the pen name of Ruth Rendell. This is an excellent thriller with a great plot. Ruth Rendell was such a good writer and this book motors along with good plotting, structure and language.

A great book for the mystery/thriller genre.

4.5 out of 5 stars.
