The Wheel Spins | Ethel Lina White

Pickpick

The Wheel Spins aka The Lady Vanishes - this was a lot of fun! I've never seen the movie but would like to check it out. The MC wasn't very likeable but it's impossible not to sympathize with her distress. I liked how the overheard conversation between Hare and the professor, about the effectiveness of juries and reliability of witnesses, set a theme for how the journey would play out.

This vintage cover reminds me more of an old Harlequin romance than a mystery. 😄 #paranoia #novemberland

mllemay Who and what is that man injecting creepily in the background??? This is like my worst nightmare 😱 8y
LauraJ Just think, someday our crisp new books will have readers swooning over their "vintage" covers ? 8y

quirkyreader The cover on mine was more Gothic type. But yes this cover definitely screams M&B. Speaking of which last week I got over 20 boxes of them. And I am drowning. 8y
EloisaJames The hypodermic, though! Nancy Drew, grown up? 8y
rubyslippersreads @EloisaJames Very grown up, I think. 😄 8y
