Abstract
Detective fiction is a genre characterized by mystery, reasoning, and intrigue that has captivated readers for centuries. However, the mystery here does not rely on theology but is rooted in logic. Malmgren (1997), in Bloody Murder, defines detective fiction as a hybrid genre encompassing elements of detective crime, psychological analysis, suspense, and police procedural stories. It ensures that the detective's resolution of the crime presented to them does not depend on “divine revelations, feminine intuition, nonsensical ramblings, trickery, coincidence, or acts of God.”
