Do you know what a mystery is? Do you know the steps to writing one? You might have a good idea or can do one pretty well, but Hayden helps to make you better at it. I loved how this book covered secrets, hints, unmasking the killer, starting the story, conflict, plot, characters, tricks of the mystery trade, and more. As an avid mystery reader, I readily agreed with them all but to apply them as a writer is a whole other matter. Knowing is one thing. Doing is another matter entirely.
If you are interested in writing mysteries, this is a book you have to read. Use it as a reference. Highlight in it. I highlighted and made notes all over the place and even dog-eared a few pages (don’t tell my teachers). There is so much valuable information in here that you’ll find yourself going back over it time and time again.
Want to write? Want to write mysteries? Want to improve on your talent? Then this is a book you have to have in your reference library.
