Introduction by Barry N. Malzberg.
Several reprints of old Cornell Woolrich Phantom Lady covers, all in full color.
All copies signed by Barry N. Malzberg, Matt Mahurin, and Jacob McMurray.
Sewn binding, rounded back, ribbon marker, head and tail bands, printed endpapers, top-edge stain, and other extras.
Published November 2012. Can you ever be certain that a dramatic, life-altering event actually occurred? Without corroboration, can the arresting and prosecuting authorities be convinced you were not there, did not participate in a heinous crime? They may question your memory, veracity, and sanity, but you know the truth, or think you do. It's all right there in your memory banks - the setting, the time, your whereabouts, and others involved. Unless...No! The possibility it never happened, that you might be...insane...is unacceptable.
Cornell Woolrich takes the reader there, provides a palpable sense of gnawing uncertainty, helplessness, and fear. In the end, there is an exhausted acceptance despite heroic efforts to find a missing female whose testimony could prevent the preordained outcome...execution for a crime you did not commit.
This is a handsome hardcover, 300 copies, 5⅝ × 9 inches, bound in cloth with color inset on the front board, fine dustjacket on Mohawk Carnival paper, ribbon marker, full color endpapers and interiors, old book covers, top-edge stain, and a special four-page tipped-in signature plate.
