This fresh and definitive portrait of the Master of Suspense by acclaimed biographer Patrick McGilligan follows Hitchcock's life from its humble beginnings, as the son of an East End greengrocer, through an extraordinary career in which his films set new standards for cinematic invention, to his death as a Hollywood legend in Beverley Hills.
