An awful warning of the fleetingness of literary fame and fortune. Ruth brought 
home a couple of aged murder mysteries from our club library. I am looking at 
the blurb on the back cover of one of them. There I see the portentous words

"a thriller in the Dornford Yates tradition"

With a name like that, how could an author be forgotten?
