An old woman is found dead in her bath, her wrists slashed - an apparent suicide. But bizzarely she is wearing a scold's bridle on her head - adorned with a crown of nettles. By the author of The sculptress.

In this hypnotic novel of psychological suspense, a homeless man is found starved to death in the garage of a ritzy London home. The police chalk it up to an unfortunate accident, but a journalist, Michael Deacon, is intrigued. Amanda Powell, a socialite whose wealthy husband vanished five years ago after being accused of embezzlement, is just as interested as Michael in finding out who died in her garage. They have no idea that this simple story will unveil a web of deceit that is an appalling as the people behind it.

Elfen tekenen lijkt moeilijk omdat u ze nooit ziet. Toch is het eenvoudig u elfen voor te stellen, omdat ze nauw verwant zijn aan mensen, vooral aan kinderen. De vleugels, het belangrijkste kenmerk van elfen, kunt u overnemen van verschillende bronnen, zoals de vorm van bladeren of de vleugels van vogels en vlinders. In dit boek wordt u op weg geholpen door een echte elfenkunstenaar door u een heleboel ideeën aan te reiken en een reeks sjablonen aan te bieden van elfengezichten en figuren die kunt natekenen of kopiëren.

A 20-year-old murder, committed during a climate of intolerance, is at the center of this superb psychological novel. When "Mad Annie" Butts, a black woman afflicted with Tourette's syndrome, dies in the street in front of her London home, police call it an accident. But M. Ranelagh, the young teacher who finds her dying neighbor and tells the story, believes otherwise. And Ranelagh's obsessive quest for justice or, as some believe, revenge leads her to pursue the case for years while living abroad, before personally investigating and confronting her former neighbors.
