A stranger lures a child into his car with the promise of sweets. A young man spots his fiancée’s double in a public park of ill repute. An executive visits the secluded home of a former employee whose intentions are frightfully unclear. A modest soul weds the woman he rescues from suicide—only to fall victim to an unfathomable form of possessiveness... In the eleven tales gathered in The Fallen Curtain, Ruth Rendell—the grande dame of the literary mystery—lays bare the twisted inner workings of the unbalanced mind. Here are eleven tales of haunting psychological accuracy: the gesture that betrays a parent's madness, the childhood memory clouded with denial, the utterance that introduces the threat of violence in a situation as benign as a dinner date. Instantly engaging, maddeningly addictive, The Fallen Curtain testifies to the enduring talents of a master of the genre.

How quickly she forgot that nightmares often begin as the most pleasant of dreams. Averie should have known better. If things seem too good to be true, they often are. And on the night of the Silver Rose Ball, everything had definitely been far, far too good. The princess laughed without a care, danced as if there was no tomorrow, and let the elation of those around her lower her usually high walls. But in Averie's world, happiness and peace are just beautifully constructed illusions. When an enemy crashes the party, a bloodbath ensues that threatens her kingdom—and her friends. As Averie struggles to save the ones she can, it takes only a single misstep to bring her to her knees. As Averie contends with her insurmountable grief, can she still be the princess that her people expect?
