Author Biography:

On November 9, 1832, a French writer named Emile Gaboriau was born in Saujon. He attended law school in Paris before deciding to focus on writing. He worked as a journalist before turning to write, contributing to publications including Le Pays and Le Petit Journal. The detective novels that Gaboriau is most known for are "The Widow Lerouge" and "The Mystery of Orcival," both of which had tremendous acclaim when they were first published. His books were known for their complex narratives, well-crafted characters, and meticulous attention to detail. One of the first writers to create a formula for detective fiction that would be adopted by many writers in the genre, he was one of the first. Detective fiction became a well-liked genre thanks in large part to Gaboriau's efforts. At the age of 40, Gaboriau passed away on September 28, 1873, leaving behind a legacy as one of the founders of detective fiction.
