The Monster in the Box (Inspector Wexford, Book 22)

The Monster in the Box is the latest addition to Ruth Rendellâ€™s â€œmasterfulâ€ (Los Angeles Times) Inspector Wexford series.

In this enthralling new book, Rendell, â€œthe best mystery writer in the English-speaking worldâ€ (Time), takes Inspector Wexford back to his first murder caseâ€”a woman found strangled in her bedroom. Outside the crime scene, Wexford noticed a short, muscular man wearing a scarf and walking a dog. The man gave Wexford an unnerving stare. Without any solid evidence, Wexford began to suspect that this manâ€”Eric Targoâ€”was the killer.

Over the years there are more unsolved, apparently motiveless murders in the town of Kingsmarkham.

Now, half a lifetime later, Wexford spots Targo back in Kingsmarkham after a long absence. Wexford tells his longtime partner, Mike Burden, about his suspicions, but Burden dismisses them as fantasy. Meanwhile, Burdenâ€™s wife, Jenny, has suspicions of her own. She believes that the Rahmans, a highly respectable immigrant family from Pakistan, may be forcing their daughter, Tamima, into an arranged marriageâ€”or worse.
