About the author
Anthony Wynne was the pen name of Scottish physician and author Robert McNair Wilson (1882–1963). Alongside his medical career, he wrote more than two dozen mystery novels, many featuring doctors, scientists, isolated houses, and apparently impossible crimes.
His best-known books include Murder of a Lady, The Sign of the Wasp, The House of the Arrow, and The Flying Corpse. Wynne’s mysteries are valued for their atmospheric settings, medical detail, and classic whodunit plotting, and several have been brought back into print for modern readers.
