Over de auteur
Anna Katharine Green (1846–1935) was a pioneering figure in the American literary world, widely acknowledged as one of the first writers of detective fiction in the United States. Her contributions to the genre have earned her the moniker 'the mother of the detective novel.' Born in Brooklyn, New York, Green pursued literary endeavors from a young age and initially gained fame with the publication of her first novel, 'The Leavenworth Case' (1878), which became a bestseller and established her as a noteworthy writer. Her storytelling was characterized by intricate plotting, legal knowledge, and the ability to create deeply engaging characters, particularly reflected in the detective, Ebenezer Gryce, who became a recurring figure in her works. 'Detective Sweetwater's Cases' is a testament to Green's mastery of crafting compelling detective narratives that delve into the fascinating interplay of psychology and crime-solving. With over 40 novels to her name, her influence extends beyond her books; she has inspired countless male and female writers, and her work has been adapted for the stage and the early silver screen. Green's literary style combined romantic fiction with the intellectual challenge of solving a mystery, a blend that modernized the genre and laid the groundwork for future detective stories.
