Title: Classic old-fashioned Fun
Review: Classic post-WWI spy tale wherein a Hungarian teacher/translator with no national status is vacationing in the south of France and is accused of being a spy. A mix-up with his camera has him in jail and set for extradition unless he helps the police capture the real spy, who must be one of the guests at his hotel. With this as the set-up, this is very much a mystery of the type set on an English country manor with a houseful of guests. Here, the guests are of varying nationalities, and may not be what they seem. The hero manages to bungle a number of situations, which gets annoying but certainly raises the tension. Some of the plot is rather forced, but it's still good old-fashioned fun.
