Young English girl Nikky and her aunt arrive at the Moon-Spinners, a hotel on Crete, to a less than enthusiastic welcome. The coolness of the owner is only out-done by the surliness of her brother Stratos, recently back from London. But then there is nice English lad Mark to make friends with, at least until Stratos and his pal take a shot at him one night. When Nikky helps him hide she finds the Greeks are after her too.

I've lived through two wars, four revolutions, and five marriages... but nothing like this!
This is the vacation I aimed to take, not with those “crazy adventures,” but for the place, the ocean, and especially Nikky’s clothes And what about Madame Habib’s lifestyle?!?!? Someone make a reality show for her right now!!

Nikky is so incredibly infuriating. Why couldn't she just jump on the fucking windmill? It didn't look that difficult. Throughout the entire film she is so useless and whiny, and Mark was awfully annoying as well.

To call this Hitchcock from Wish.com would be far too scathing. It is Hitchcock from Bershka at a minimum.
