(4.6 stars; 9 reviews)

In Ruth Rendell's psychological thriller, Guy is a natural-born villain who loves the classy Leonora. Determined that if he can't have her forever, no one else will, he spirals into a dangerous obsession. This gripping tale is brought to life through a dramatic adaptation by Robert East, directed by Matthew Walters.

Set against the evocative backdrop of West London, the story explores the stark contrast between the slums of Notting Hill Gate and the mews houses of Holland Park. As childhood sweethearts from the same criminal gang, Guy and Leonora's paths diverge when she announces her engagement. Guy's innocent love turns into a psychopathic fixation, leading to fatal consequences.
