Amazon | Project Gutenberg

Anna Katharine Green, sometimes referred to as the 'Mother of Detective Fiction,' was an American author whose career extended from the 1870s till shortly before World War I. Her books are intricately plotted with complicated webs of clues, and full of Victorian atmosphere and melodrama. The Leavenworth Case, published in 1878, was her first novel and an excellent example of her work.
