Lily Adams Beck, née Elizabeth Louisa Moresby (1862 in Queenstown, Cork, Ireland - 3 January 1931 in Kyoto, Japan) was a British writer of short-stories, novels, biographies and esoteric books, under the names of L. Adams Beck, E. Barrington and Louis Moresby, and sometimes other variations: Lily Adams Beck, Elizabeth Louisa Beck, Eliza Louisa Moresby Beck and Lily Moresby Adams. She began her writing career for The Atlantic Monthly, Asia, and the Japanese Gassho, publishing short-stories. These were gathered into collections since 1922. She was 60 years old by the time she started to publishing her novels, which commonly had an oriental setting. Her stories collected in The Openers of the Gate (1930) feature an occult detective inspired by the "John Silence" stories of Algernon Blackwood.
