Alice Perrin or Alice Robinson (15 July 1867 – 13 February 1934) was a British novelist who wrote about the British in colonial India. She became successful after the publication of her short ghost story collection East of Suez.

Perrin was born in the hill station of Mussoorie in Anglo-India in 1867. She was sent to England where she went to school and when she returned she married an engineer Charles Perrin on 26 May 1886 in Dehra. Once married and after the birth of their only child she took to writing.[1]

Though perhaps best known today for her romance novels set in India, Perrin gained initial fame writing Anglo-Indian ghost stories that, like her contemporary Bithia Mary Croker, are more subversive than her longer fiction.[2]
