Christopher Fowler delves into the back catalogues and backstories of 99 authors who, once hugely popular, have all but disappeared from our shelves.

These journeys are punctuated by short essays about faded once-favourites: including the contemporary rivals of Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christie who did not stand the test of time, and the women who introduced us to psychological suspense many decades before it became so popularized.
