The Lucifer Chord

An absolutely brilliant book. The heroine, Rutthie Gillespie, is one of my favourite characters from the mind of this author. I've met her in other books and have grown fond of her. Throughout this book I worried about her and feared for her safety. That, to me, is the sign of a well written book, that you can feel the menace oozing through the pages, and feel the panic the characters feel.
Did Rutthie come to harm? Well, you'll just have to read the book and find out.
