Carter Dickson was the pseudonym used by John Dickson Carr (1906-1977) for his books featuring Sir Henry Merrivale. Carr was a hugely popular and prolific author of crime fiction, regarded as one of the finest writers of 'Golden Age' mysteries. Though born in Pennsylvania, USA, Carr developed a distinctly 'British' style to his mystery writing from his time living in England and became one of only two Americans ever admitted to the Detection Club.
