Awdures llyfrau dirgelwch o Ganada ac Unol Daleithiau America oedd Charlotte MacLeod (12 Tachwedd 1922 - 14 Ionawr 2005).[1][2]

Fe'i ganed yn Brunswick Newydd, Canada a bu farw yn Lewiston, Maine o glefyd alzheimer. Wedi gadael yr ysgol mynychodd Brifysgol Lesley, Massachusetts.

Ymfudodd Charlotte (Matilda) MacLeod i'r Unol Daleithiau yn 1923, a daeth yn ddinesydd yno yn 1951. Aeth i Sefydliad Celf Boston. Yn ystod diwedd y 1940au a dechrau'r 1950au, gweithiodd fel copïwr ar gyfer Archfarchnadoedd Stop and Shop yn Boston. Yna, ymunodd â staff N. H. Miller & Company, cwmni hysbysebu, lle cododd i lefel is-lywydd, gan ymddeol ym 1982.

Gyrfa a sgwennu

Tra'n gweithio i gwmni hysbysebu yn ystod y dydd, dechreuodd MacLeod ysgrifennu storiau dirgelwch, gan gyhoeddi dros 30 ohonynt. Mae llawer o'i llyfrau wedi'u gosod yn New England, gan gynnwys un gyfres sy'n canolbwyntio ar yr Athro Peter Shandy, ac un arall ar ddau o Beacon Hill, Sarah Kelling a Max Bittersohn. Cyhoeddwyd dirgelion eraill, a leolir yng Nghanada, o dan y llysenw-awdur "Alisa Craig". Roedd wedi teilwra ei llyfrau yn benodol i fod yn "cozies", h.y. gan osgoi gormod o drais, gwaed a rhyw. Mae pob un o'i llyfrau'n cynnwys arddull doniol ac ysgafn, prif gymeriadau hoffus, a phobl ecsentrig.[3]

Fe'i disgrifiwyd droeon fel y "gwir wraig" a welir yn aml gyda het a menig gwynion. Dechreuodd MacLeod ysgrifennu am 6 y bore, parhaodd drwy'r bore, yna defnyddiai'r prynhawn ar gyfer ailddrafftio. Dim ond ar ddydd Sul y dechreuodd hi lyfrau newydd ac yn ystod ysgrifennu byddai'n aros wedi gwisgo mewn cot-nos er mwyn osgoi'r demtasiwn o adael y tŷ ar gyfer neges. Gwerthodd ei gwaith dros filiwn o gopïau yn yr Unol Daleithiau yn ogystal â Chanada a Japan. Roedd MacLeod yn gyd-sylfaenydd a chyn-lywydd Cynghrair Awduron Troseddu America. Derbyniodd Wobr Nero am The Corpse in Oozak's Pond (1987), a enwebwyd hefyd ar gyfer Gwobr Edgar.

Treuliodd MacLeod ei blynyddoedd olaf yn Maine. Tua'r diwedd, dioddefodd o glefyd Alzheimer a bu farw ar 14 Ionawr 2005, mewn cartref nyrsio yn Lewiston, Maine.
