From the Hardcover edition.
begins, Chief Inspector Wexford is walking in Framhurst Great Wood, just outside his beloved town of Kingsmarkham, for what he tells himself will be the last time. He can no longer bear to look at the beauty that will soon be despoiled by the construction of a new highway.
While Wexford despairs, his more sanguine wife, Dora, is active on a committee to save the threatened land. Others are more desperate to achieve their end, and their means include taking hostages -- including Dora -- and threatening murder.
Wexford and his dedicated team of officers work against time to learn the identity of the kidnappers, taking readers on a riveting chase following the intricate turns of the investigation. And, as in every Ruth Rendell novel, beyond the mortal drama lie political and moral questions that are not resolved with the closing of the case, and that apply far beyond the limits of Kingsmarkham ....
Road Rage is also available from Random House AudioBooks.
