Trusted Like the Fox

Two killers wanted her—one for protection and one for prey. One of them had slain a helpless man to hide the secret of his identity. And he was quite prepared to kill the girl if she tried to double-cross him.

But he’d reckoned without that terrible accident—and he was totally unprepared for the insane murderer who made death a ritual with a silver-handled knife.

A series of accidents—as well as the inventive imagination of one of the masters of thriller writing—brings together, in the same house, a bizarre trio.

For Grace Clark it was one more step in a long appalling nightmare that began when she met the man called David Ellis : a man whose act of kindness won her loyalty... and her trust.

But then Grace was a trusting soul : how else would she had found herself sharing a house with a man with a special, macabre taste in murder ?
