作者简介
Fergus Hume was an English novelist who gained an enduring reputation in the pantheon of crime and mystery fiction, primarily for his seminal work, 'The Mystery of a Hansom Cab.' Born as Fergusson Wright Hume in 1859 in England, he spent his formative years in New Zealand before moving to Melbourne, Australia, where he became involved in theatre and subsequently initiated his writing career. Primarily recognized for his contribution to the detective novel genre, Hume's bibliography includes over 130 novels, exemplifying his prolific nature and his penchant for crafting engaging mystery narratives. 'The Red Bicycle,' while not as well-known as his debut work, carries the hallmarks of Hume's literary style which involves intricately plotted mysteries, a vivid portrayal of the setting, and an emphasis on the systematic and logical deduction methods of his characters in unraveling crimes. Hume's influence extended to inspiring future writers in the genre, though his later works never quite achieved the same level of critical or commercial success as 'The Mystery of a Hansom Cab.' Nonetheless, his role in the development of the detective story gives him a respected place in the history of English literature. Hume passed away in 1932, but his contributions to the mystery genre continue to be celebrated and studied by scholars and enthusiasts of crime fiction.
