Green has been called the mother of the detective novel . She is credited with shaping detective fiction into its classic form, and developing the series detective. As journalist Kathy Hickman writes, Green stamped the mystery genre with the distinctive features that would influence writers from Agatha Christie and Conan Doyle to contemporary authors of suspenseful whodunits . In addition to creating elderly spinster and young female sleuths, Green’s innovative plot devices included dead bodies in libraries, newspaper clippings as clews , the coroner’s inquest, and expert witnesses.
