PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Ethel Lina White (1876-1944) was an author from Abergavenny whose novels and short stories in the crime, suspense and horror genres were immensely popular during the 1930s and 1940s. Though she remains best-known as the writer of The Wheel Spins, also republished in the British Library Crime Classics series in 2023, she was an influential figure in the Golden Age of crime fiction whose reputation, in her heyday, rivalled those of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L Sayers.
