I Married A Dead Man

`She went looking for the gun...¿ The survivor of a horrific train wreck, moneyless, desperate, pregnant Helen Georgesson slowly regains consciousness to find herself surrounded by the members of her wealthy, adoring Californian family. The only problem is: she has never met any of them before. I Married a Dead Man is a miraculous noir novel by the absolute master of the genre. Extravagant, histrionic, maze-like, the plot ¿ even while you condemn it as absurd ¿ keeps you imprisoned in Woolrich¿s surreal, agonized world.
