detective story is a narrative involving a murder case or a mystery that is successfully solved or given a rational explanation by a detective. It is sometimes called a
«whodunnit» (who done it) because its main aim is to involve the reader in the investigation, to invite him to discover who the criminal is.
The beginning of the detective story can be traced back to Poe's "tales of Ratiocination" . Poe created a sort of fixed formula which appealed to later writers and is still adopted nowadays.
This pattern includes some constant elements:
• a crime;
• the detective's investigation;
• the hypotheses;
• the final solution;
• three stock characters:
- the clever detective;
- sometimes, the detective's companion who is slower and thus provides a contrast to the detective. He can also be the narrator of the story;
- a policeman who is usually unintelligent and rather unimag-inative;
• an urban setting.
