Ruth Rendell/Barbara Vine fans?

I love British psychological suspense novels. I've read all of Rendell's books, and Minette Walters. Always on the lookout for new authors. Mo Hayder is another one, but too graphic sometimes for me...

IMO. I'm going to watch the Ruth Rendell mysteries thru Netflix now too. I've never seen any of her stories adapted to film.
