At thirty-five he has yet to make a significant sale; among the half dozen artists at his dealer's show, he is the only one overlooked by the Time's critic; his paintings of imaginary murders in vivid New York settings, while admired for their technique, are faulted for their lack of conviction." Nick is thinking of suicide when he encounters a strange man -- Andre Bellisle -- who says he can help Nick for a price. Bellisle can foresee the deaths of others and thus can supply the reality that Nick is missing in his paintings. . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.
