Welcome to the very first program ever broadcast on PBS Mystery!-a BBC thriller set high in the French Pyrenees in the 1920s. Suave English hero Richard Chandros (Malcolm McDowell, Lexx, Time After Time) races to rescue a young girl (Karen Dotrice) drugged and kidnapped by the sinister Vanity
Fair (Dame Eileen Atkins, Cranford, Gosford Park). Lively performances, an exciting plot and spectacular scenery make this espionage-flavored romp a favorite you'll watch time and again.
