Susana Hernández Marcet (Barcelona, 1969)[1][2] is a Spanish writer who specializes in noir fiction. She created the character of Inspector Rebeca Santana, a lesbian investigator, who is the protagonist of several novels.[2] Hernández has also written theatrical plays and taught literary workshops.[1][3]

Hernández studied image and sound and social integration, as well as private investigation and psychology.[3] In addition to collaborating with print and radio media outlets, she has excelled as a writer. In 2005, she won the Ciudad de Sant Adrià award and was a finalist in the 2013 Valencia Negra literary festival. Inspector Santana was chosen as the best female character in noir and detective fiction in the 2012 LeeMisterio awards.[4]

Along with writers Clara Asunción García and Isabel Franc, Hernández was a pioneer in creating criminal or detective plots around lesbian characters.[5] All these novelists show an influence by US author Jean M. Redmann.[6]

Eva Paris-Huesca, in Curvas peligrosas en el contexto de los feminismos del nuevo milenio[a] (2013) quotes Professor Shelley Godsland when she explains that this vast body of female-authored literature developed in Spain from the 1980s onwards, establishing a dialogue with the various feminist movements that have been gradually developing alongside the progress made by Spanish women in the political, economic, and social spheres.[7][8]

Moreover, gender studies researcher Alicia Romero López compares Hernández's Inspector Santana character with other female detectives created by authors such as Alicia Giménez Bartlett (with her character Petra Delicado [es]), Blanca Álvarez González (with Bárbara Villalta), Isabel Franc (with Emma García), Rosa Ribas Moliné [es] (with Cornelia Weber-Tejedor), Rosa Montero (with Bruna Husky), Dolores Redondo (with Amaia Salazar), Susana Martín Gijón [es] (with Annika Kaunda); as well as the series of novels about detective Sonia Ruiz written by various authors, such as Lorenzo Silva and Noemí Trujillo, Andreu Martín, Esteban Navarro, and Claudio Cerdán [es]. Romero López also mentions the series of novels written by Antonio Santos Mercero about the character Sofía Luna, the first transgender police inspector in Spanish literature.[9][10]
