Rollo Martins, a failing novelist, is invited to Vienna by his best friend, Harry Lime. The city he arrives in is unrecognizable – torn apart by the Second World War and shared between the occupying Allies. What’s more, Lime is dead, accusations of racketeering have been laid at his feet, and the circumstances of his demise look suspicious. Determined to uncover the truth, Martins starts asking questions but soon begins to fear for his own life. Accompanied here by twelve further stories that exhibit the full range of Greene’s masterful storytelling, The Third Man is an atmospheric noir that drips with suspense. With an introduction by Professor Richard Greene.
