โฆ Synopsis
IS IT DANGEROUS TO KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT YOUR NEIGHBORS?
When Stuart Font throws a housewarming party, he invites all the residents of his new buildingamong them, three flippant young girls, a lonely spinster, a man with a passion for classical history, and a woman determined to drink herself to death. He definitely does not want his girlfriend, Claudia, in attendance, as he would also have to invite her lawyer husband. But careful planning can only get a person so far. As it turns out, this party will be one everyone remembers.
Meanwhile, living in a town house opposite Stuarts building, in reclusive isolation, is a young, beautiful Asian woman known as Tigerlily. As though from some strange urban fairy tale, she emerges infrequently to exert a terrible spell.
In Tigerlilys Orchids, Ruth Rendell has written a darkly humorous and psychologically thrilling novel about the eccentric inhabitants of a London terraceabout the secrets they keep, and what they will do to hide them.
