She Faded into Air: Large Print

By: White, Ethel Lina

The story of the alleged disappearance of Evelyn Cross was too fantastic for credence. According to the available evidence, she melted into thin air shortly after four o'clock on a foggy afternoon in late October. One minute, she was visible in the flesh-a fashionable blonde, nineteen years of age and weighing about eight and a half stone.The next minute, she was gone.The scene of this incredible fade-out was an eighteenth-century mansion in Mayfair. The Square was formerly a residential area of fashion and dignity. It had escaped a doom of complete reconstruction, but some of the houses were divided up into high-class offices and flats.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.
