I checked the Kindle section of the library; she's not there. I managed to get a copy of The Lodger from Gutenberg UK. She wrote masses of books. It would be great to have some of them in beautifully formatted form in the MR library.
Thanks.

Her works enter the UK public domain on 1st January 2018. Copyright ends at the end of the 70th year after the death of the author. 1947+70 = 2017, so copyright continues for the rest of 2017.
