shakatany: Sleeping woman plus moon and stars (B5-From the Stars)
[personal profile] shakatany
I read in today's New York Times that Phyllis A. Whitney passed on at the age of 104. Her writing career lasted over half a century as she published her first book in 1941 and her last in 1997 when she must've been around 93. In 1988 she received the Grand Master Award for lifetime achievement from the Mystery Writers of America. Years ago she was one of my favorite writers of romantic mysteries. I think the novel I liked best was The Quicksilver Pool set in the aftermath of the Civil War. Requiescat en pace.
