Ruth Rendell: "The Queen of Crime"
I am a big fan the British mystery writer Ruth Rendell. She has captured three major Edgar Awards-one for the novel A Dark Adapted Eye (1987) and for two short stories-The Fallen Curtain (1975) and The New Girl Friend (1984). In addition to these major literary distinctions, Rendell has also earned a variety of additional awards for her volume of quality work.
