Double Indemnity by James M. Cain Asian Literature The story is so richJames M. Cain, virtuoso of the roman noir, gives us a tautly narrated and excruciatingly suspenseful story in Double Indemnity, an X ray view of guilt, of duplicity, and of the kind of obsessive, loveless love that devastates everything it touches.

Phyllis wanted to buy an accident policy on her husband.
