Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Along with Raymond Chandler, Cornell Woolrich practically invented the genre of noir.

You can palpably feel the agony in Woolrich and his work.--James Ellroy

Woolrich was a master of the form.--Tom Nolan

Nothing beats a tale of fatalistic dread by the supreme master of suspense, Cornell Woolrich, whose novels and short stories define the essence of noir nihilism.--Marilyn Stasio

Woolrich devised and used instruments of psychological torture--his stories.

Reseña del editor:

In this classic crime novel, a panic-stricken young wife races against time to prove that her convicted husband did not murder his mistress. Writing in first person from the wife’s viewpoint, Woolrich evokes her love and anguish and, finally, desperation as she becomes an avenging angel in her attempt to rescue her husband from execution.
