Compared with a ten year period beginning in the mid '80s, the breast cancer mortality for this age group dropped nearly 30%. Clearly, mammograms done on women in their late 70s were picking up breast cancers that would have otherwise proved lethal if not detected.
Mystery fiction is a genre of fiction usually involving a mysterious death or a crime to be solved. In a closed circle of suspects, each suspect must have a credible motive and a reasonable opportunity for committing the crime. The central character must be a detective who eventually solves the mystery by logical deduction from facts fairly presented to the reader. Sometimes mystery books are nonfictional.
Itâs tricky to define. Goodreads says that gothic fiction âcombines elements of both the uncanny and romanceâ and is a âparent genreâ for horror and mystery. While I think the former is true (and it encompasses books that are gothic in feel but arenât necessarily horror), I donât quite agree with the latter.
