Celia Fremlin is an astonishing writer, who explores that nightmare country where brain, mind and self battle to establish the truth. She illuminates her dark world with acute perception and great wit. (Natasha Cooper)
Tightly plotted and admirably concise... Fremlin expertly ratchets up the tension, notch by notch. (Laura Wilson) --Laura Wilson
Highly intelligent entertainment, beautifully written with wit and humour. (Frances Fyfield) --Frances Fyfield
It grips like grim death. (Spectator) --Spectator
"It grips like grim death." -- The Spectator. In this 1960 Edgar Award-winning thriller, a young housewife with two lively daughters and an endlessly crying baby battles domestic chaos as well as growing suspicions of the household's new lodger. Are her fears the product of sleep deprivation, as her unsympathetic husband suggests, or is there really something sinister about the respectable-seeming schoolmistress? "Highly intelligent entertainment, beautifully written with wit and humor." -- Frances Fyfield.
