About Wax
The residents of the British town of Riverpool are disturbed by a series of murders in the local waxworks museum. As tensions mount, local journalist Sonia Thompson determines to investigate - but when she spends the night alone at the museum, she soon finds horror stalking the exhibits. A classic crime thriller from the author of The Lady Vanishes. Ethel Lina White was a British crime writer, best known for her novel The Wheel Spins, on which the Alfred Hitchcock film, The Lady Vanishes, was based. She left employment in a government job working for the Ministry of Pensions in order to pursue writing, which was to make her one of the best known crime writers in Britain and the USA during the 1930s and '40s.
