Eccentric characters define a quirky society.

The Saint Zita Society is perfect for those who enjoy dark humor and eccentric characters. Ruth Rendell weaves a story of a society of hired help joining together to air their grievances and a man who has recently been released from a hospital for the criminally insane. The book's most distinctive feature is the eccentric cast of characters that Rendell portrays and the dark humor that permeates the novel. If you enjoy offbeat stories with offbeat characters, The Saint Zita Society is a must-read.

Description

Life for the residents and servants of Hexam Place appears placid and orderly on the outside: drivers take their employers to and from work, dogs are walked, flowers are planted in gardens, and Christmas candles lit uniformly in windows. But beneath this tranquil veneer, the upstairs-downstairs relationships are set to combust. Henry, the handsome valet to Lord Studley, is sleeping with both the Lord's wife and his university-age daughter. Montserrat, the Still family's lazy au pair, assists Mrs. Still in keeping secret her illicit affair with a television actor in exchange for pocket cash. June, the haughty housekeeper to a princess of dubious origin, tries to enlist her fellow house-helpers into a 'society' to address complaints about their employers. Meanwhile, Dex, the disturbed gardener to several families on the block, thinks a voice on his cell phone is giving him godlike instructions, commands that could imperil the lives of all those in Hexam Place.
