Phantom Lady Author:Cornell Woolrich, Matt Mahurin Phantom Lady is Cornell Woolrich at his best: a "wrong man" thriller compounded with a ticking clock (his execution) as well as shadowy femme fatales. In this new edition, Barry N. Malzberg, who was Woolrich's agent in the 1960s, and one of perhaps only two literary figures still living that knew Woolrich, provides a fascinating account of the man.
Cornell Woolrich is one of the best at the noir game and this may be his best. Fast paced with enough plot twist the confuse the mind and hide the killer.
