Biography
Headon Hill, eigentlich Francis Edward Grainger, (* 1857 in Lowestoft, Großbritannien; † 1924) war ein englischer Journalist und Schriftsteller.
Grainger schrieb als freier Journalist für verschiedene Zeitschriften und Zeitungen. Für seine eigenen literarischen Werke, meist Kriminalromane, benutzte er das Pseudonym Headon Hill; evtl. kann man diesen „nom de plume“ mit einer geologischen Formation auf der Isle of Wight (Alum Bay) assoziieren.
