I'm not sure if she actually wrote any detective stories but
Patricia Highsmith seems like a candidate. Didn't she write
the story "Strangers on a Train" was based on? I've only read
one Highsmith ("Talented Mr. Ripley") and I despised it (not
because Ripley was bad but because I found him insanely
dull), but she obviously has many devotees.
