Description

Hans Windelband finds himself, at twenty-six, among the living dead. Somehow, his life has gone terribly astray, but caught in a web of despair, he lacks the strength or desire to try and determine what went wrong--until he opens the morning newspaper and reads his own obituary. "An exciting detective story. Recommended."--Library Journal
