The Black Angel

ebook

The basis for the classic 1940s movie from "the supreme master of suspense . . . whose novels and short stories define the essence of noir nihilism" (The New York Times Book Review).

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.
