A classic thriller, the blood runs warm at the thought, the detective juices are turned on and the simmering undercurrent of intrigue is stirred sufficiently to keep an audience on their toes; a story worthy of the great crime dramas, The Lady Vanishes has all the hall marks of a tale of conspiracy and manoeuvring, of being part of a time in which an ideal of Europe was decaying and in which a new, terrifying order was being installed, a Europe on the brink.
