Roy Vickers is a pen name of William Edward Vickers. He was an English mystery writer who also used the pseudonyms Roy C. Vickers, David Durham, Sefton Kyle, and John Spencer. From 1921 to 1965 he wrote over 70 crime novels and 80 short stories. - Wikipedia Vickers is best known in the United States for the terse, understated tales appearing in *The Department of Dead Ends*. A prolific writer, Vickers was capable of adopting many styles and exploring many themes within the ratiocinative genre. His mature style explored the machinations of the haunted criminal mind--especially the criminal mind lurking behind a facade of perfect respectability. - Dover Publications
