Stranger Fidelities (1929), My Own Far Towers (1930), The Senator's Lady (1932). The Heirs of Mrs. Willington (1934), and Key Next Door (1937). As March Evermay, she also wrote three detective novels, They Talked of Poison (1938), This Death Was Murder (1940), and Red Light for Murder (1951), her final book.
