Freeman Wills Crofts Biography
FREEMAN WILLS CROFTS 1879-1957 Freeman Wills Crofts is regarded, amongst collectors as a leading light of the 'Golden Age of Crime Fiction' although he probably remains anonymous to a new generation of readers, unlike Christie and Sayers et al.
This is a shame as Crofts was a key pioneer of the genre, in fact his main series character, Inspector French, is widely credited as being the first series Police Officer to feature as the main investigative character. The Penchant at the time being for amateur sleuths such as Poirot, Marple and Wimsey etc with the Police playing a more sedentary role. Crofts was born in 1879 in Ireland, the son of a British army Doctor. After a religious upbringing and education Crofts went on to become a railway engineer, a job he stuck with for most of his working life. But it was not until recovering from a serious illness, in 1919, that Crofts dipped his toe in to the literary pool that was to become the 'Golden Age of Crime Fiction'.
The result was his first, and arguably best, novel

Freeman Wills Crofts (1879-1957)
Freeman Wills Crofts blev født i Dublin i 1879.
Han arbejdede som ingeniør ved jernbanen i mange år, inden han i 1929 begyndte at skrive detektivromaner.
Inden sin død i 1957 nåede han at skrive godt 40 romaner.
I England får Crofts bøger i disse år en eksempelløs renæssance, og hans gode, underholdende detektivromaner er af den type, som man aldrig bliver træt af at læse.
Raymond Chandler kaldte Crofts for " den bedste komplotmager af dem alle
