It is a story of missing lady who just got married earlier that day at Grace Church. The newlyweds checked in at the hotel and registered before five o’clock in the afternoon and ten minutes after she was gone without a trace. The registration paper reads Roger J. Ransom and wife. Mr. Ransom ranted it all to the manager and a certain Mr. Gerridge, a detective, assures him that he will help him find his missing wife. The detective asks for circumstantial questions. The husband tells what happened earlier in the church during their wedding, that his wife was worrying about something and when he asked her about it, she did not give an answer. He further narrates that his wife seems to want to get out of the church immediately. He just considered it as his wife is nervous and jittery about them getting married and walking down the aisle. But she was tenser when a certain guest congratulated her and said something her husband did not know about. When at the hotel, they talked about traveling to places and she showed no interest her face was blank. It is as if, she was not at all in love with her husband. Did she really leave her husband for another man? Or, is she still alive? Will they find her and solve the mystery? Anna Katharine Green was an American poet and writer. She was among the first authors of fiction books of investigation in the United States and her writings are concise and specifically legal. She was described to be “the mother of the detective novel”. Green was born in Brooklyn, New York. She fell in love into writing when she was still young, she wrote romantic poetry, and she coincided with Ralph Waldo Emerson. Her poetry was not recognized at first, so she wrote her first and famous book, The Leavenworth Case, which gained acknowledgment from Wilkie Collins, and it was the bestselling book of the year 1878. She was ultimately regarded as an author and she wrote and published almost 40 novels.
