Summary
A heart-thumpingly perfect ghost story, beautifully and irresistibly written. Its hero is William Bellman, who thrives in life but, one by one, people around him die. And at each funeral, he is startled to see a strange man in black smiling at him. At first, the dead are distant relatives, but eventually his own children die, and then his wife, leaving behind only one child, his favourite, Dora. Unhinged by grief, William gets drunk and stumbles to his wife's fresh grave - and who should be there waiting, but the smiling stranger in black. Not a sequel to "The Thirteenth Tale."
