Fergus Hume (1859–1932) was a prolific English novelist. His self-published novel, “The Mystery of a Hansom Cab”, became a great success. Hume based his descriptions of poor urban life on his knowledge of Little Bourke Street. 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”.
