Margot Bennett (1912-1980) was a Scottish-born author who wrote crime fiction, suspense novels, and one work of science fiction across a career that lasted from the 1940s through the 1960s. She published eleven novels, beginning with Time to Change Hats in 1945 and ending with The Furious Masters in 1968.
Her most celebrated book is The Man Who Didn’t Fly (1955), a mystery with an inventive premise: five men planned to board a plane, only four did, and the plane crashed with no survivors. The puzzle of who stayed behind and why drove a tightly constructed plot that earned the book a lasting reputation. Bennett also wrote The Long Way Back (1955), a science fiction novel set after a nuclear war, and The Intelligent Woman’s Guide to Atomic Radiation (1964), a non-fiction work on nuclear science.
