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.
