Victor L. Whitechurch (1868 - 1933) was a clergyman and author. He wrote many novels on different themes, though he is probably best known for his detective stories featuring Thorpe Hazell, a vegetarian railway detective whom the author intended to be as far from Sherlock Holmes as possible. He also wrote religious books, novels set in the church, and his autobiography.
