L'autore:

CORNELL WOOLRICH (1903–68), considered by many to be the inventor of the noir genre, wrote his first novel while still attending Columbia University. Many screenplays have been based on his mysteries, including Night Has a Thousand Eyes, The Leopard Man, and Rear Window.

RICHARD DOOLING’s novel White Man’s Grave was a finalist for the 1994 National Book Award. His writings have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The New Yorker. His most recent novel is Bet Your Life, a modern take on noir detective fiction. He also writes for the ABC series Stephen King’s Kingdom Hospital.
