Devil Take The Blue Tail Fly by John Franklin Bardin
Set against the backdrop of post-war New York City, this psychological thriller delves into the fragmented mind of Ellen, a talented concert pianist grappling with the aftermath of a traumatic event. As Ellen's world unravels, she becomes ensnared in a web of paranoia and delusion, blurring the lines between reality and imagination. Her struggle to reclaim her sanity is compounded by the mysterious death of her husband, leading her on a haunting journey through the shadows of her own psyche, where the truth is as elusive as the haunting melodies she once played.
