And his guilty passion was her only alibi. Patrick Quentin, Q. Patrick and Jonathan Stagge were pen names under which Hugh Callingham Wheeler (1912-87), Richard Wilson Webb (1901-66), Martha Mott Kelley (1906-2005), and Mary Louise White Aswell (1902-84), collaborated to write detective fiction. Most of the stories were written by Webb and Wheeler in collaboration, or by Wheeler alone. A scarce book.
