Reading the SelectionGenre – Mystery Elements of a mystery

An investigator investigates and solves the mystery.

Clues are scattered throughout the work.

The reader is given new clues only when the investigator finds them.

Red herrings, or clues leading to a false solution, are scattered among the useful clues.

There are multiple suspects.

All suspects seem to have alibis, or explanations that would have prevented them from causing the problem.

The single solution must be possible and believable, but should not be too obvious.

The solution must be revealed at the end.
