  • "When Benet was about fourteen, she and her mother were alone in a railway carriage and Mopsa had tried to stab her. Now, years later Benet is to meet her at the airport, try not to hate her and get to the bottom of a web of deception, kidnap and murder."
  • "A young boy dies, another goes missing, and one mother's choice will forever alter many lives When Benet's young son dies on the operating table, she cannot be comforted-not even by her mother who cares for a young boy just about the same age. Meanwhile, another mother's son goes missing, and police circle around possible suspects in what must be murder. These three mothers-the schizophrenic Mopsa, upwardly mobile Benet, and gold-digging Carol-become forever entwined by death, delusion, kidnapping, and murder, and one woman's loss becomes another's gain. With deft characterization and keen insight, Rendell presents a complex, real exploration of morality and a mother's love in this Crime Writers' Association Macallan Silver Dagger award–winning novel."

  • "Mopsa, driven by a past scarred by madness and violence. Benet, stricken by the most grievous loss any woman can bear. Carol, trapped in a life of crushing drabness no lover can change. Three mothers joined by a single thread of terror, whirled into a spiral of kidnapping, murder, and a final, reckless affirmation of love."
  • "Titre original: The Tree of Hands."
  • "Un singulier enlèvement constitue la trame de ce superbe roman à mi-chemin entre Agatha Christie et Patricia Highsmith."
