Marion Mainwaring (1922-2015) lived a long and colorful life in Boston, London, and Paris. Readers have enjoyed her talent for mimicry in her 1950s parody Murder in Pastiche, Or Nine Detectives All at Sea, and especially in her 1993 completion of Edith Wharton's unfinished novel The Buccaneers, her most popular work. Mainwaring was also a serious scholar (PhD in English, Harvard, 1943), but brought playfulness even to her major non-fiction work, Mysteries of Paris: The Quest for Morton Fullerton (2001). This meticulously documented biography of Fullerton, a well-connected journalist, scoundrel, intimate of Henry James, and lover of Wharton, is told in the form of a true-detective memoir.
