Get a Clue

Having just joined ficly and read as much as I can, there is some MAJOR talent on here, particularly with regards to putting a twist in the tale - one of the essential components of a good murder mystery or detective story. In any style, be it the 19th Century pipe-smoker or the far-future robocop, produce a piece of detective fiction to dazzle, shock and impress!
