The Red Room
Nicci French
Mysterious Press
August 7 2001

Interviewing people in police custody is part of Dr. Kit Quinn's job. But when Michael Doll, a disturbed derelict caught hanging around a London schoolyard, breaks a mug and tears up her face during questioning, he also cracks her composure and self-confidence. The incident leaves her with recurring dreams of a red room, where nightmares become real. Three months later, Kit is again called upon to talk to Michael Doll after the police pick him up for the murder of a teenage runaway. Kit believes Doll didn't do it, and he walks free. Touched by the fate of the homeless girl, Kit becomes involved in a dangerous, deadly inquiry. But when she links the teenager's murder to the high-profile case of a pretty blond housewife, abducted in broad daylight and killed, the main figure in the middle of it all is ... Michael Doll.
