Link between gender of writer and gender of main character (detective) created.?
I want to write a series of detective novels and one of my favourite hobbies is reading crime fiction novels.
I have noticed that male writers always seem to create male detectives e.g. DI Tom Thorne created by Mark Billingham and vice versa e.g. Miss Marple created by Agatha Christie.
With the exception of Inspector Wexford created by Ruth Rendell I can not think of any crime fiction detective series where the author has created a detective with a gender opposite to their own.
Could anyone identify any other series where this has happened (author and detective having opposite genders)?
Suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks to those who have mentioned Poirot - that should have been pretty obvious to me, haha.
Anymore?
I think we have also established Alexander McCall Smith as another thanks!
I know Stephen Booth also created a male/ female partnership.
Not many men creating female characters it seems!
There's quite a few female authors who write male detectives -
Lindsey Davis' Ancient Roman detective Marcus Didus Falco
Ellis Peters Cadfael
Dorothy L Sayers Lord Peter Whimsey
I think Paul Temple was also created by a woman, but I can't remember her name.
Also in the crime category are women writing as male criminals (Patricia Highsmith's Ripley).
BUT I can't think of any men writing a female detective though unless you count Alexander McCall Smith's Mma Ramotswe or Isabel Dalhousie.
