Críticas:
You either like Ruth Rendell's style or you don't. Eminently British and immensely popular her books are, however, subtly very clever indeed. What first appears as slightly plodding is suddenly, by a seemingly chance sentence, escalated into the realms of the best of British crime writing. "The Rottweiler" is a prime example. Slow to start, its pace quickly gathers, subplots and even sub-subplots swirling around the main crime, misting the mind and muddying the waters before becoming clear as daylight in an unbelievably neat and clever conclusion. Revolving around the owner of a London antique shop and her tenants in the flats above, the daily discussions amongst this disparate collection of humankind is the "Rottweiler", a man killing young girls and taking a keepsake after death. When one such keepsake is discovered in the shop, the police are faced with the all too real possibility of the killer being very nearby. Using her usual psychological proficiency, the cast are expertly depicted as possible suspects or victims, no detail too small or insignificant to mention. And when the subplots start the pace quickens anew. A must for all Rendell fans. - Lucy Watson
Reseña del editor:
The first girl had a bite mark on her neck but they traced the DNA to her boyfriend. But the tabloids got hold of the story and called the killer 'The Rottweiler' and the name stuck. The latest murder takes place very near Inez Ferry's antique shop in Marylebone. Someone saw a shadowy figure running away past the station, but the only other clues are that the murderer usually strangles his victims and removes something personal - like a cigarette lighter or a necklace...Since her husband died, too soon in their relationship, Inez has supplemented her income by taking in tenants. The murderous activities of the sinister 'Rottweiler' will exert a profound influence on the lives of this heterogeneous little community, especially when the suspicion emerges that one of them may be a homicidal maniac.
