About this product

Product Information

The detective story or classic whodunit gained traction in the 19th century. Early in its development, the whodunit was harshly criticized for its structure that adhered to a strict formula. As the modern psychological detective story has emerged from early blends of detective fiction and psychology, the genre has continued to develop in complexity. This book, the first of its kind, analyzes over 150 whodunit novels and short stories across the decades that feature psychology, from The Moonstone to contemporary novels. Book jacket.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
