Su producción literaria a menudo explora temas que resuenan con lo espiritual, evidente en sus apreciados cuentos de fantasmas admirados por M.R. James. El estilo de Mayor se caracteriza por su penetrante visión de la psicología de los personajes y su hábil construcción del suspense. Su prosa transmite una profunda comprensión de la naturaleza humana, haciendo que su obra sea distintiva por su profundidad y atmósfera.
Dedmayne Rectory is quietly decaying, its striped chintz and darkened rooms a bastion of outmoded Victorian values. Here Mary has spent 35 years devoting herself to her sister, now dead, and to her father, Canon Jocelyn. Although she is pitied by her neighbors for this muted existence, Mary is content. But when she meets Robert Herbert, Mary's ease is destroyed and years of suppressed emotion surface through her desire for him. First published in 1924, this novel is a rich exploration of Mary's relationship with her father, of her need for Robert, and the way in which, through each, she comes to a clearer understanding of love.
