The Code, the Mystery and the Riddle


 Novel Title: Kod Michelangelo (The Michelangelo Code)

 

Genre: Mystery/Thriller/Detective

 

From the 20 basic plots - quest, adventure, pursuit rescue, escape, revenge, the riddle, rivalry, underdog, temptation, metamorphosis, transformation, maturation, love, forbidden love, sacrifice, discovery, wretched excess, ascension and decension, Kod Michelangelo (The Michelangelo Code) is categorized in the RIDDLE plot.    

 

THE RIDDLE – plot involves the Protagonist’s search for clues to find the hidden meaning of something in question that is deliberately enigmatic or ambiguous. A riddle is a deliberately enigmatic or ambiguous question. The answer should have both surprise and cleverness. This has evolved into the mystery. “A challenge to the reader to solve the problem.”

 

Your mystery should have at its heart a paradox that begs solution. The plot itself is physical, because it focuses on events (who, what, where, when and why) that must be evaluated and interpreted (the same as the riddle must be interpreted). Things are not what they seem on the surface. Clues lie within the words. The answer is not obvious (which wouldn’t satisfy), but the answer is there. And in the best tradition of the mystery, the answer is in plain view. Clues! Not too obvious, and ambiguous ones do well…avoid the red herrings, the clues that don’t add up, the throw-away clues…work on clues that must be understood correctly. Give the reader a chance.
