Felicity Winifred Carter

Felicity Winifred Carter (2 December1906—7 November1995), better known by the pen name Emery Bonett, was an English writer of novels, detective fiction and screenplays.

Felicity Winifred Carter was born in Ecclesall, Sheffield. Among the books she wrote under the Emery Bonett pseudonym were "Never Go Dark", "Make Do with Spring" and "High Pavement". Her husband John Hubert Arthur Coulson also penned works of detective fiction, such as "Perish the Thought", under the nom de plume John Bonnet. They were married in London on 21 January1939.

Together, as John and Emery Bonnet, they wrote numerous mystery, suspense and detective novels including "Dead Lion", "A Banner for Pegasus", "No Grave for a Lady", "Better Dead", "The Private Face of Murder", "This Side Murder", "The Sound of Murder" and "No Time to Kill". They also collaborated on the story and screenplay for a low-budget, 60-minute, regional comedy, "Children Galore" (1955), directed by Terence Fisher. Untypically for these authors of murder and mayhem stories, it was a bright and cheerful original plotline about elderly English small-town matriarchs competing with each other to win a contest centered on the size of their children's families.
