When exploring the origins of detective fiction, Edgar Allan Poe is unequivocally regarded as its pioneer and founding father. Nevertheless, at the dawn of this genre, a notable female figure also emerged, whose literary contributions potentially influenced subsequent writers, including the renowned prolific English author Agatha Christie.

Who is this mysterious figure navigating the realm of detective literature, often hailed as the progenitor of the detective novel genre? By delving into the main characters of her prominent works That Affair Next Door, Lost Man's Lane and The Circular Study one can discern Anna Katharine Green's pioneering role in introducing the spinster detective archetype and her profound impact on subsequent authors. Such an analysis not only highlights her unique contribution to the evolution of crime fiction but also sheds light on the distinctive characteristics of the detective novel genre within the historical context in which these works were crafted.
