The Victim: Faber Stories

English

By (author): P. D. James

Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles.

On the whole, it was easier than I had expected. Only once did I feel myself at risk. That was when the Inspector suddenly intervened. He said in a harsh voice: He married your wife, didn't he? Took her away from you some people might say. Nice piece of goods, too, by the look of her. Didn't you feel any grievance?

I had been expecting this question. I knew exactly what I would say.


The late, great P. D. James takes us inside the mind of a murderer.

Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.
