<I>Seeing that the living don't bring flowers to the dead, the dead bring them to the living.</I> Mrs. Wardh tried to get out of the vice life but it keep bringing her back in. Well done story and great pacing. I will admit it got sluggish here and there but it kept my attention. The best of all was the ending. Definitely a must see for any giallo fan.
