Ethel Lina White, born 1887 to 1944, is an author whose work is more familiar to people than they may at first realise. Whilst far from being on the best seller lists her name remains safe due to the book she wrote, The Wheel Spins, better known to most for the classic film adaptation by Alfred Hitchcock The Lady Vanishes. For this reason and also for being on the publisher imprint Collins Crime Club the author retains some collectability today. Some very attractive dust jacket artwork also boosts the desirability for collectors. Her mystery fiction work ran steadily from 1931 to 1962. There are also some alternative titles for American editions and readers should be aware that some later paperbacks were also retitled. |

Final Word
A mid-division Golden Age writer who is better known for the films of her work
as opposed to the work itself.
Mystery fiction collectors are drawn, arguably, more by the her British
publisher rather than the author.
Still a solid writer and worthy of greater attention.
