Publisher's summary

Fifteen years before Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published A Study in Scarlet, Anna Katharine Green began writing The Leavenworth Case, inspiring the creation of detectives like Sherlock, Poirot, and Wimsey, as well as almost every device and convention we now recognize as standard in detective mystery fiction.

When her father's client is found murdered, Anna takes up the call to prove innocent the young girl accused of the murder. The investigation inspires many of the events, characters, and descriptions that would later be published in her debut novel.

A love letter to mystery and writing itself, A Deed of Dreadful Note is an homage and reintroduction to an author who was the Agatha Christie of her time, but a forgotten female today.

This book is a fictionalized account of how Anna Katharine Green’s first novel may have come to be.

A Deed of Dreadful Note is book one in the Anna Katharine Green Mysteries, the only historical fiction series featuring the mother of detective fiction.
