A good detective novel has several key elements. One is a strong sense of place. In Agatha Christie's novels, the settings like the English countryside or a luxury cruise ship become part of the mystery. Another is the use of red herrings. These false clues mislead the reader and the detective within the story. And a great detective novel will make you think. It challenges your mind to figure out the solution before the detective does.

More Answers

A good detective novel often has a complex mystery. For example, in 'The Hound of the Baskervilles', the mystery of the hound's appearance and the deaths on the moor keeps readers guessing. It also has a clever detective. Sherlock Holmes uses his sharp intellect and powers of observation to solve the case. And there is usually a web of suspects, each with their own motives and secrets.

Well, a good detective novel usually has a suspenseful plot. The story builds tension as the detective tries to piece together the clues. Take 'Murder on the Orient Express'. The confined setting of the train adds to the mystery. It should also have well - developed characters. The detective, the victim, and the suspects all need to be believable. And the solution to the mystery should be both surprising and logical.

1 answer
2025-03-06 02:25

Scenery description and environment description were both methods to describe the scenes in novels, but their purposes and effects were different. The main purpose of the scene description was to let the readers better understand the plot and the relationship between the characters, so that the readers could feel the atmosphere of the novel. By describing the scene, the author could let the readers better imagine a virtual world and feel the feelings and thoughts that the author wanted to express. For example, in a novel, the author could describe a mysterious forest, an ancient castle, a desolate desert, etc. to express the unique charm and atmosphere of the virtual world. The description of the environment was to better express the character. By describing the environment, the author can let the readers better understand the environment of the characters and feel the emotions and thoughts of the characters. For example, in a novel, the author could describe the temperature, climate, atmosphere, etc. of the environment in which the character lived to express the character's personality and psychology. Therefore, scene description and environment description were both important means of novel description, but their purposes and functions were different.
