Piranha to Scurfy & Other Stories
Ruth Rendell Audio Book

The title story is about a man whose life, in a sense, is a book. Life for Ambrose Ribbon is lonely and obsessive without his mother, yet there is one book that he associates particularly with her - Volume VIII of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, 'Piranha to Scurfy'. It marked a very significant moment in their relationship.

As well as 'Piranha to Scurfy', these stories are also included: 'Computer Séance', 'Fair Exchange', 'The Wink', 'Catamount', 'Walter’s Leg', 'The Professional', 'The Beach Butler', 'The Astronomical Scarf', 'High Mysterious Union' and 'Myth'.
