Fergus Hume (1859–1932) was a prolific English novelist. His self-published novel, “The Mystery of a Hansom Cab”, became a great success.

It eventually became the best selling mystery novel of the Victorian era, author John Sutherland terming it the “most sensationally popular crime and detective novel of the century”.
