When his father dies, Carl Martin inherits a house in an increasingly rich and trendy London neighbourhood. Cash poor, Carl rents the upstairs room and kitchen to the first person he interviews, Dermot McKinnon. That is mistake number one. Mistake number two is keeping the bizarre collection of "cures" that his father left in the medicine cabinet, including a stash of controversial diet pill. Mistake number three is selling fifty of those diet pills to a friend, who is then found dead. Dermot seizes the nefarious opportunity to balckmail Carl, refusing to pay rent and creepily invading Carl's space. Ingeniously weaving together two storylines, Rendell describes one man's spiral into darkness--and murder--as he falls victim to a diabolical foe he cannot escape.
