About the author

Margaret Lynn was the pen name of Gladys Starkey Battye, an English novelist born in 1915. Sources describing her work identify her as a textile designer and hotelier as well as a writer, and several bibliographic records place her life in 1915–1975.

Writing mainly in the 1960s and early 1970s, she published a run of suspense and crime novels including To See a Stranger, Whisper of Darkness, A Light in the Window, Sunday Evening, and Sweet Epitaph. Her fiction is often grouped with British mystery and gothic suspense, with stories that lean on tension, secrets, and a feeling that something is not quite right beneath ordinary life.

Although she is not widely documented in major reference sources, her novels have stayed visible through crime-fiction bibliographies, library listings, and reprints. That lasting interest suggests a writer whose moody, twisty storytelling still appeals to readers who enjoy classic mid-century suspense.
