Whodunit

In the story “The Dying Detective,” Sherlock Holmes utilized his intelligence to obtain the truth about a crime committed by Mr. Culverton Smith. The whodunit was written by Arthur Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes planned to frame Mr. Culverton Smith. In order for him to do so, Sherlock Holmes acted as if he had a life threatening disease; he feigned his death. Mr. Culverton had given Sherlock Holmes the box that contained deadly poison. Sherlock Holmes did not tell anyone he was faking because he…

Some things ought to be taken at face-value, like the theory of ancient astronauts, for instance. Oh, but you haven’t seen an ancient astronaut’s face to value, right? Now does the lack of that tidbit of information spoil the whole theory? Well, it doesn’t according to the German rocket scientist, Wernher von Braun, who said: “Our sun is one of a 100 billion stars in our galaxy. Our galaxy is one of billions of galaxies populating the universe. It would be the height of presumption to think…

the rock while he was gone? I also considered the connection between the blue ghost and the White Dragon. Was Morgan’s ghoul searching for the stone so he could whip up a batch of elixir and somehow restore his ghostly body? Or was the ghost of Whodunit Hill a myth, some story desperate parents made up to scare their bored children half to death? When I finally fell asleep in a sea of sheets and a tangle of blankets, I slept like a rock without any…

into the character on the fly and even added her own touch with some purring action. Her personal touch worked very well with the minimal sound effects used by The Black Fedora. The sound effects were, what i would consider traditional for this type whodunit mystery. They used a lot of “dun-dun-dun!!!” to indicate suspense and Noel Noir had a signature “swish-swish-swish” when she slinked about the…

I have read the novel “Fear Nothing”, which was written by Dean Koontz and published in 1998. The story starts off with Christopher getting a call from a nearby hospital. His father has cancer, and not many hours left to live. Following his death, a lot of unusual events takes place. As it turns out, the nocturnal Christopher might be the key to rescuing the world from an apocalyptic retrovirus. All of this, in 24 hours. The most important incident which affects Christopher in the book is…

Fate is an inevitable and most often adverse outcome, condition, or we can say end, while free will is the ability or discretion to choose; free choice. In the story Oedipus the King, one of Sophocles masterpiece, free will plays an important and significant role in the story. In my honest opinion, I am up the view that fate only intervenes in one instance, but on the other hand this is not the case with Free will. Free will is distributed throughout the entire story. I do have a strong belief…

It’s clear that Trump is a fear-monger, the hero of his own story, concocting falsified personal anecdotes and narratives to fuel his emotive tirades. He created a story about how he saw “thousands of people… cheering as the building was coming down,” a claim that has been widely disputed as incorrect. Several publications, including CNN, Politifact, and The Washington Post all fact-checked Trump’s claims and stated there was no proof of thousands of Muslims cheering as the WTC fell. A story ran…

Chapter Twenty-One The Perfect Plan Gone Awry Wayward Winds Estate Wednesday, 7:30 a.m. When we arrived at Miss McBride’s an hour later, the coffee was brewing and places were set for us at the table with her fine bone china, the antique silver from a chest in the dining room, and linen napkins the color of snow. “Morning,” Hannah said, handing us each a glass of orange juice. Chief Chizelmen licked his thin lips. “Miss McBride take her biscuits out of the oven yet?” “She didn’t make biscuits…
