A famous crime or mystery author
“A famous crime or mystery author” is a question in OnlyClick, and our answer book knows 53 answers to it. Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle and Dorothy L. Sayers are what most people type first, so they score the least. It is a fairly short list: only 13 answers sit in the two rarest tiers, so reaching one takes real knowledge.
