From what I've read in the first 4 chapters of this book changed the aspect of the way I look at old books. Right away it catches the attention of the audience (The Readers) with the whole murder. The murder in the story seems to be like it will never be figured out. And in my view, I like to read stories that are never solved. It's different than all the other mystery books where as the predator is always caught. I find this story more of a suspense than mystery. Reason being is that this story already shows sophisticated fear. Usually in a mystery story you can already assume who the killer is and in this case it is very challenging. The story is made so that the killer is never found. But it puts the reader into action by have the reader make accusations and think they know who the killer is.
