1889–1955
Best known for bringing a sharp psychological edge to mystery fiction, this American novelist moved from writing popular romantic novels in the 1920s to suspense and crime stories after the 1929 market crash. Her work is often remembered for ordinary people under pressure and for a cool, observant style that helped shape domestic suspense.
