If you love mysteries, then you should be lining up at the bookstore to get the latest crime story. Like any good mystery book, you should expect to read something fictional with elements of realism.The best new mystery books come suspense-filled, and you will be taken on a journey where you have to choose to believe the protagonist, who is the detective, or side with the villain.

Even though the detective is the person expected to solve the crime, you are going to sympathize with the rest since they are all considered suspects. Whether it’s a twist of characterization or an unlikely hero that you expect to read about in the detective story, you should prepare yourself for a thrill. Generally, you should expect the following elements from your latest crime novel:

• A Believable Plot: In every great mystery story, there must be a plot that the reader believes. This makes the story engaging and real even if its pure fiction. The clues have to be interwoven in the stories but not obvious. So, they should be unveiled as one continues to read. At times, even a false clue may work to make the story believable. These are some of the things to expect from the plot of the latest novels.

• Protagonist Vs Villains: There is always a protagonist who acts as a detective in a mystery book. The other characters are perceived as suspects. In the beginning, you should expect not to identify a specific culprit. The unveiling will come at the end of the story after the investigation is done. As you read page by page, you will be able to connect the dots that lead to the villain.

• An Investigative Flow: You should expect to walk with the protagonist through an investigative journey as you try to unravel the mystery and solve the crime that is robbing the protagonist joy.

• Appropriate setting: mystery fictions use story settings in ways that generate excitement to the reader. Most of the settings are places that are either familiar to the readers (to add a haunting element to the story) or places where the reader can imagine and realistically see as crime spots.

• A Solution for the Mystery: Finally, you cannot call a given story a mystery one if there is no solution for the crime. This is where the protagonist comes out victorious having conquered the villain.

Bottom-line

There is no reason why you should not get to the nearest book store and grab that copy of the new mystery book you have heard your peers talk about. There is so much to discover. The thrillers are fun-filled, suspense-filled, and twisted.
