JORGE HAS WRITTEN AN ESSAY ABOUT FLAWED PROTAGONIST IN DETECTIVE FICTION. WHICH SENTENCE IN THE ESSAY REVEALS SOME BENEFITS OF HAVING A FLAWED PROTAGONIST IN DETECTIVE FICTION?
Detective Fiction: The Flawed Protagonist
DETECTIVE FICTION USUALLY INVOLVES THE PROTAGONIST INVESTIGATING A MURDER MYSTERY. Most detectives are deeply flawed. These flaws help build tension in the story. EVERY READER WANTS THE MYSTERY TO BE SOLVED. However, readers also want some excitement along the way. Authors put a lot of work into making sure that the action leading to the solving of the mystery is exciting. Authors use a variety of techniques to build this kind of tension. This is where the detective’s flawed personality becomes useful.

In certain cases, the detective breaks with procedure to unravel the mystery. This behavior creates tension because it often ends up putting obstacles in detective’s the way. It can lead to situations like the arrest of the wrong person or the detective’s temporary suspension from the police force. In other cases, the detective’s private life may threaten to derail the investigation.

MOST READERS WOULD NOT IDENTIFY PERSONALLY WITH FLAWED TRAITS THAT THE PROTAGONIST POSSESSES. Even so, many readers are attracted to these characters. JUST AS THEIR FLAWS CREATE TENSION, THEIR ON-THE-EDGE LIFESTYLE MAKES THEM APPEALING. Readers imagine themselves as the detective, although most of them would not otherwise live their life in the same manner.
P.S. all the big phrase are your options :)
