The history of humanity is interspersed with unsolved
mysteries. The fascination for puzzles and enigmas is
echoed in the media, literature as well as cinema.
The rise of detective fiction proved to be the
perfect means to entertain as well as to challenge
the reading public to an imaginary battle of infinite
solutions and suspects. The chance to escape from the
boring everyday life seemed and still seems
fascinating and attractive to the majority of
readers. Detective novels and stories resemble a
wonderful present wrapped in an austere packing that
reserves enormous surprise after its content is
revealed. This book sheds light on the status of
detective fiction in world literature during its
extensive history. Its purpose is to present the
originators as well as the laureate representatives
of the genre. These ideas illustrate the literary
achievements and innovations of acclaimed women
writers as A.Christie, D.L.Sayers, M.Allingham, and
from the contemporary Queens of Crime, Ruth Rendell
and P.D.James. Readers familiar with the literary
creations of these writers will find a pleasure in
discovering the different interpretations and
relations between the old and the new mystery.
