Women's crime fiction as a (sub) genre is an invention of literary criticism and the publishing industry of the 1980s. In the 21st century it has almost completely disappeared from publishing agendas. Like other forms of detective fiction, women's crime fiction went through many stages of development. It tried to serve as a social mouthpiece for women's issues, it reflected the changing reality, only to finally be recognized as a relic by the feminist debate - as a concept, not as a crime narrative, because today, both in Western and Eastern Europe, women's crime fiction is still written, however, it isn't referred to as "feminine". The purpose of analyzing the examples of women's crime fiction collected in this volume is to describe the aforementioned (sub)genre.
