Gregoriou, C orcid.org/0000-0003-2875-0180 (Cover date: Fall 2021) Clue-Burying and Misdirection-Making in Peter Robinson’s When the Music’s Over (2016). Clues: A Journal of Detection, 39 (2). pp. 51-59. ISSN 0742-4248
Abstract
Close stylistic inspection of detective novel writing can shed light on the skill of weighing up interpretations. In When the Music’s Over, Robinson relies on readers’ schematic expectations, stereotypes, and prejudices to generate false leads and bury a killer into the narrative background until his significance needs to be foregrounded.
