  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.

  DUCHESS 
   
   
   
  I always wanted to have a big family. That's why I created my own. My husband is my heart. My mom is my ribs. My kids . . . They are the air I breathe. Without them, I'm not whole. Everyone has dark secrets, yet mine are the kind of life-altering skeletons that could threaten the very mission I've spent my entire life fighting. My children think they know my story, but they don't. Not all of it. Not the parts that would make them question everything they know in life. My constant has been my love for Stan and that's a truth I'll always share. 
   
   
   
  STANLEY 
   
   
   
  I would move heaven and earth for my family. Yet, for Duchess, I wouldn't hesitate to give my life and soul in exchange for her to continue to grow the Crowne legacy. She may have taken my last name, but she made it worth more than I ever could have imagined. Years ago, I vowed to spend eternity fighting by her side for missions close to our hearts. Our children think they know our story, but they don't. We had a life before them. One many aren't aware of. My love for Duchess has only gotten stronger, but now it seems the past has caught up with the present.
