| The Keys to the Street
| | Ruth Rendell
| When Mary Jago made the ultimate sacrifice of donating her bone marrow to a man she did not know, she did not understand the changes that would take place in her life as a result. The consequences of this act are extraordinary. She finds the strength to leave an abusive relationship and to seek the gentle love that has been missing in her life. She has a chance at undreamed-of-happiness and also becomes vulnerable to the darkest grief.
In the area surrounding London's Regent Park, the wealthiest, poorest, kindest and most vicious citizens all cross paths. Mary becomes entangled with the homeless people who find refuge in the park. When her new friends begin turning up impaled on the spiked railings surrounding the park, Mary's life is in danger. Under normal circumstances she would be separated from such things by strong social barriers; so why does she find solace with these people now?
