The Mayor's Wife is a mystery novel written by Anna Katharine Green and first published in 1907. The story follows the investigation into the murder of a wealthy woman, Mrs. Jeffrey, who is the wife of the mayor of a small town. The detective tasked with solving the case is Ebenezer Gryce, a recurring character in Green's novels.The investigation takes Gryce and his team through the small town, where they encounter a cast of suspicious characters, including a jealous husband, a disgruntled employee, and a mysterious stranger. As the investigation progresses, Gryce begins to uncover secrets and motives that lead him closer to the truth behind Mrs. Jeffrey's murder.The novel is notable for its intricate plot, well-drawn characters, and attention to detail. Green was one of the first American writers to specialize in detective fiction, and The Mayor's Wife is a prime example of her skill in crafting a compelling mystery. The book is also notable for its depiction of small-town life in early 20th century America, as well as its exploration of themes such as greed, jealousy, and betrayal.
