An American novelist travels to Vienna just after World War II for a funeral and slowly discovers that his recently deceased friend was not the nice chap he remembered him as. For that matter, is he even really dead? A stunning thriller written by Graham Greene that makes great use of shadows and shabby glamour of post-war Vienna.
