Personally, I would have said that hyphenated names rely on the first letter, i.e. 'Adler-Olsen' would be 'A' but 'Alexander McCall Smith' would be 'S' as McCall is a given name as far as I am aware and not part of his surname. Similarly, Catherine Ryan Hyde would by 'H' for Hyde not R. Hope this helps!
