Disability and Crime Fiction

Crime fiction has a trajectory in which suspense and curiosity are raised by a mystery or problem and resolved by the close of the work. Often, the closure or solution is all the more satisfying when the mystery is more profound or the sense of intrigue raised to greater heights. Since mystery or suspense must be raised intensely, disability often plays a part in creating more mystery, suspense, or red herrings. In this way, it is employed more as a tool.
