Narrative Structure

Detective story

This is our original detective story in chronological order. We began with the crime being committed and the criminal getting away. Then the crime scene is discovered and investigated. The investigators find out who the criminal was and in the end catches the criminal.

The narrative structure of the story can be changed by mixing up the order of events and creating a non-linear structure. This can still work in the story as you can use flashbacks to show previous events to create enigma and tension for the audience.
