Description and Table of Contents
Description
Murder, perversion, corruption, blackmail, secret terrors that lead to unspeakable acts, hidden fears that erupt in irrational violence...
All these, of course, are part of someone else's world. They happen out there, far from the ordinary streets and ordinary people who live in your neighbourhood, your town. They have nothing to do with the everyday lives of people like you.
Or do they?
The New Girlfriend and Other Stories - an extraordinary collection of sleek and sinister stories from the writer described by Scott Turow as 'one of the greatest novelists presently at work in our language'.
'Flesh creeping skill' - OBSERVER
'Her range is extraordinary... a shocking fusillade of finales' - SUNDAY TIMES
