If you haven't read Wexford, you might want to look at an earlier Wexford and see what you think (maybe From Doon with Death, Wolf to the Slaughter, The Best Man to Die).

Addicted as I am to mysteries, for some reason I am not a Rendell reader. My loss I'm sure. Perhaps I should reconsider and read this book you have reviewed.
