(Originally published as The Wheel Spins) by Ethel Lina White
When a train bound for London halts high in the Austrian Alps, a young Englishwoman named Iris Carr befriends a kindly governess, Miss Froy. But when Iris wakes from a fainting spell, Miss Froy is gone-and every passenger insists the woman never existed.
Trapped in a sealed carriage of strangers, Iris begins a desperate search for the truth. Is she suffering from sunstroke and delusion-or has she stumbled into a sinister plot that no one dares admit?
First published in 1936, Ethel Lina White's gripping novel of paranoia and deception became one of the most celebrated thrillers of the interwar years. Alfred Hitchcock's 1938 adaptation, The Lady Vanishes, turned this story of a vanished passenger and a doubted witness into one of cinema's great suspense classics.
This special film-tie-in edition contains the complete text of the original novel while highlighting its transformation into Hitchcock's masterpiece-a timeless tale of mystery, isolation, and the terror of not being believed.
