She could swear they're out to get her; even the house gets messy on purpose, all by itself. Marie's twin is living in a hole in the back-garden, small and round as a cherry pip, waiting to be discovered.</p><p>In <em>The Knife Drawer</em> the steak knives grow so hungry that they scream. When the children murder the rent man, things get a little out of hand …</p><p></p>
