“Horatio Leavenworth, Esq., a millionaire, is murdered in his library while he is engaged in reviewing a book he plans to publish. He was shot cleanly in the back of the head (with his own pistol), meaning that he did not turn his head when his assassin entered the room. This fact led detective Ebenezer Gryce to conclude that he recognized the footsteps of his assailant and felt he had nothing to fear from this person.”
Thus begins this first novel in the “Mr. Gryce” series. Anna Katharine Green was one of the first writers of detective fiction in America and distinguished herself by writing well-plotted, legally accurate stories. She is credited with shaping detective fiction into its classic form, and developing the series detective.
*****A reviewer on Audible (the only reviewer of this Audible book) complained about the narrator. He said that the narrator should have been male since the main character is male. I’d say that is a matter of opinion. It was written by a female author. I believe this book was the first American detective novel written by a female author. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Leavenworth_Case

I agree with the reviewer. If the main character is male the narration should be male.

I suppose I agree, because it’s a first-person narrative. I haven’t listened to the audiobook of The Secret History, one of my favorites, because of all the critical comments about the author Donna Tartt’s narration, and that novel is told in the first-person narration by a male character.

The worst thing when women (and I am one myself) read the lines of a male main character, they often try to make their voice gruff, which sounds ludicrous.
However, as long as the narrator isn’t Kris Dyer (who is incapable of saying more than three words together without pausing, as in “I really (pause) don’t know whether (pause) Mr (pause) Jones is the (pause) murderer or (pause) not”) I’m not all that bothered.

Thanks for sharing
(admittedly I too prefer to listen to a gender relative narrator. However, so long as the narrator doing the reading can do multiple character voices and make it believable, I’m a happy camper (listener). Nothing worse than trying to sort out the voices in your head — for the different characters speaking)
