Would you consider Patricia Wentworth?
#2
I have read many Patricia Wentworth mystery novels, and I think she was a fine writer, definitely undervalued. She wrote around the same time as Agatha Christie, but attained no where near Christie's popularity, although she had quite a following. There are over twenty Miss Silver mysteries. She is the equivalent of Miss Marple (Christie's famous detective), but I understand that Miss Silver made her literary appearance first!
I consider Patricia Wentworth's novel The Benevent Treasure a very good gothic story.
