On a mild midwestern night in the early 1940s, Johnny Marr leans against a drugstore wall. He’s waiting for Dorothy, his fiancée, and tonight is the last night they’ll be meeting here, for it’s May 31st, and June 1st marks their wedding day. But she’s late, and Johnny soon learns of a horrible accident—an accident involving a group of drunken men, a low-flying charter plane, and an empty liquor bottle. In one short moment Johnny loses all that matters to him and his life is shattered. He vows to take from these men exactly what they took from him. After years of planning, Johnny begins his quest for revenge, and on May 31st of each year—always on May 31st—wives, lovers, and daughters are suddenly no longer safe.

From 1934until his death in 1968, CorÂnell Woolrich wrote dozens of tales of love and despairâ that chill the heart and display his mastery of the genre he all but created. In a title for a story he never wrote, he captured the essence of his tortured world: First you dream, then you die.â
Â 
Introducing these 13 tales, Nevins deÂscribes the dark world Woolrich so vivÂidly creates. The dominant reality in his world is the Depression, and Woolrich has no peers when it comes to describing a frightened little guy in a tiny apartment with no money, no job, a hunÂgry wife and children, and anxiety eating him like a cancer. If a Woolrich protagoÂnist is in love, the beloved is likely to vanish in such a way that he not only canât find her but canât convince anyone she ever existed.â
