Violet was a 17-year-old high-society debutante who led a double life as a sleuth, working for an unnamed detective agency to discreetly ferret out solutions to mysteries that could not be trusted to the police. The short stories in this collection give us a glimpse into New York society, filled with musicales and teas and ballgowns, but neither the tales nor Violet are light-hearted and fluffy. Happy endings aren't guaranteed, and we're often left with a sense of melancholy. Some of the stories are even a bit macabre. But over a century later, the well-plotted, legally-accurate yarns still satisfy one's desire for solid resolutions to seemingly insoluble mysteries.

Anna Katharine Green, known as the "mother of the detective novel," was one of the first American writers of detective fiction, making the genre popular a full decade before the first Sherlock Holmes story was published. She also introduced the concept of the "series detective" in the character of Ebenezer Gryce of the New York Metropolitan Police Force-and she also gave the world Miss Amelia Butterworth, a nosy spinster snoop who was the prototype for Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, among many others.
