Termination

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Termination is a genre novel which follows a contemporary crime fiction format. It adheres closely to the narrative shape of modem mystery books, containing the essential elements which constitute a work in this field. With a few twists. Contemporary crime fiction can follow a couple of paths along the way to solving a misdemeanour. Which is usually a murder. The protagonist is either on the spot and in the plot by virtue of his/her job. In other words, they could be a cop, forensic specialist, medical examiner, private investigator etc. Or they could be drawn reluctantly into a scenario, by circumstance or due to an over-developed sense of "doing the right thing."
