''Means of Evil'' is a collection of short stories by British writer Ruth Rendell. All the stories feature her popular protagonist Inspector Wexford, and fill in important gaps in the chronology of the series, such as Inspector Burden's second marriage. They are not considered part of the novel series, but are certainly necessary for fans. The stories were often published first in places such as ''Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine'', so the events of stories do not actually fit between the next Wexford novel (''Put on by Cunning'', 1981) and the previous, (''A Sleeping Life'', 1979), but before. == Contents == The collection contains five stories, all featuring Wexford: # "Means of Evil" # "Old Wives Tales" # "Ginger and the Kingsmarkham Chalk Circle" # "Achilles Heel" # "When the Wedding Was Over" Of these short stories, three were the basis of episodes in the ''Inspector Wexford'' television series - ''Means of Evil'', ''Ginger and the Kingsmarkham Chalk Circle'' (filmed as ''No Crying He Makes'') and ''Achilles Heel''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Means of Evil」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
