Who moved my chaise?

Three old beat-up Sax Rohmers came into our store, & i was happy to pick them up for a good price. So i read the first one, President Fu Manchu (1936)—& realized about 2/3rds of the way in, that it had the same basic plot as The Manchurian Candidate-!

The next one i read, She Who Sleeps (1928), has the same plot as—Vertigo.
