Freeman Wills Crofts' mystery novels were highly influential:
  • Books like his about Scotland Yard policemen were created by many subsequent British authors starting in the 1920's, and have played a major role in British mystery fiction to this day.
  • They also influenced the Inspector Maigret police novels of the Belgian Georges Simenon
  • Christopher Bush in England became a specialist in alibi plots, following the footsteps of Crofts.
  • Crofts' emphasis on crime-solving professionals and their investigative procedure influenced the hard-boiled private eye writers in the United States, such as Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler . Some of Crofts' early novels such as The Cask (1920) and The Cheyne Mystery (1926) include private investigators, although these men are not as hard-boiled as their American successors.
