Henrietta Keddie, schrijvend als Sarah Tytler, was een Schotse auteur die werd gevierd om haar realistische portretten van het huiselijke leven. Haar romans, bijzonder populair bij vrouwelijke lezers, speelden zich vaak af in de 18e eeuw en verkenden thema's van sociale verdeeldheid met scherp inzicht. Tytler blonk uit in het creëren van originele en sympathieke personages, en haar werk concentreerde zich soms op stedelijke Schotse locaties, waarmee ze afweek van het traditionele landelijke realisme.
