Notes: The author's first novel; she also wrote under the names Marjorie Bidwell and Mary Ann Gibbs - the larger part of her oeuvre consisted of historical romantic fiction, but the present work is a suspense novel listed by Hubin, in which, the blurb announces, 'The terrors of fog are inexorable, but not invincible'. The fog is of a London variety, evocative of, the publisher suggests, 'a time of uncertainty and doubt like the present'.
