In such a masterpiece as "and then there were none", which is by far the most sold mystery book ever, Christie chose to ignore 4 of these rules, at the very least. For instance (I mention this one because this is not a spoiler), there is no detective at all in this novel. Didn't read a lot of books from Van Dine, I just remember they are very dry, because he is fascinated with the mechanics of the detective novel. I didn't like it, but give it a try, his approach might appeal to you. |
