Anita Margolis had vanished. There was no body, no crime - nothing more concrete than an anonymous letter and the intriguing name of Smith. According to headquarters, it wasn't to be considered a murder enquiry at all. Chief Inspector Wexford, however, had other ideas.

Reviews

"Wolf to the Slaughter" has all the nuts and bolts required for a police novel but it's not a gripping mystery. If you haven't read Rendell before, don't start with this. I'd recommend her short fiction, as well as her suspense novels, like "Master of the Moor", "A Judgement in Stone" and "The Killing Doll".
