Описание книги

In a small English town of Riverpool several people were found dead in a wax museum, and a rookie journalist, Sonia Thompson, decides to solve the mystery of this notorious place. She goes to spend the night between scary wax figures and while the night slowly unfolds, the horrifying events start to occur. Frightening figures of murderers and lunatics slowly come to life. Ethel Lina White (1876-1944) was a British crime writer, best known for her novel The Wheel Spins, on which the Alfred Hitchcock film, The Lady Vanishes, was based.
