The Scold's Bridle by Minette Walters, ISBN 9781741148374

> Fiction Books > Crime Books

Mean, bitter Mathilda Gillespie has been dead for days - wrists slashed, pills spilled, body cold in the bath. Her death shouts suicide, but would even Mathilda have been crazy enough to force over her own head a rusted metal cage grotesquely laced with nettles and daisies?

In her third brilliant psychological thriller, Minette Walters takes us on a compelling and unpredictable tour of the tensions between generations, and along a trail of grief made obscure by the mysterious loss of Mathilda's detailed, shocking and very personal diaries.

Winner of the Gold Dagger Award for the Best Crime Novel.

RRP: $19.95
