Anna Katharine Green (1846–1935) was a pioneering figure in the detective fiction genre, often lauded as 'the mother of the detective novel.' Green's literary career burgeoned with the publication of her first novel, 'The Leavenworth Case' (1878), which became a bestseller and cemented her reputation as a proficient writer. She was one of the first writers to introduce the series detective with her character Ebenezer Gryce of the New York Metropolitan Police Force, a predecessor to the likes of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot and Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes.

Green's narration was marked by intricate plots, legal knowledge gleaned perhaps from her lawyer father, and an in-depth psychological dimension.
