Captured By The Cold Detective (BL)

Captured By The Cold Detective (BL)

[CRIME/OMEGAVERSE] Was it possible for the devil to get his own happy ending? A major accident seven years ago had stolen He Juan’s memory away from him, wiping it so clean that the only things he was left with were only his name, numerous scars all over his body and a nasty side effect as a result of the aftermath. Seven years passed by and when He Juan thought he could live like a normal person again, a fateful day led him to be the prime suspect of the murder case of his neighbor who had written his name as her dying message — whom, in his defense, he had not even talked to! It was then that he met Mu Yuze, the lone wolf of the Violent Crime Investigation Unit; the cold, intimidating man with beautiful and intense midnight blue eyes who seemed to hate him at first sight for some reason He Juan couldn’t comprehend. One after another, bizarre cases intruded on He Juan's normal life and turned it upside down, bringing light to a dusty past he thought he could never remember again. In the end, he had to learn that even if he had forgotten who he once was… there were still some sins he had to atone. *** Gentle, klutzy and smiling Alpha whom nobody dares to offend for some mysterious reason x cold, possessive and cinnamon roll Omega (maybe a little yandere here and there) Additional tags: top/gong/seme protagonist, action, case-solving, organized crime, thriller, gore, slice of life, tragedy, detectives, disabled characters, murders, teamwork, investigation, yaoi, mature, past plays a big part, 1 vs 1, love interest falls in love first Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord: delanasiwarka#1490 Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord

What are the characteristics of historical detective fiction books?
One characteristic is the setting. They are usually set in a specific historical period, like the Victorian era or the Middle Ages. This gives a unique backdrop for the mystery. For example, in 'The Name of the Rose', the medieval monastery setting affects everything from the characters' beliefs to the methods of investigation. Another is that the detective often has to deal with the social norms and limitations of that historical time. In 'The Alienist', the detective in 1896 New York has to work within the constraints of the technology and social attitudes of that era.

Can you recommend some good historical detective fiction books?
I'd recommend 'An Instance of the Fingerpost' by Iain Pears. It's set in 17th - century Oxford and involves multiple narrators and a complex murder mystery. 'The Chinese Maze Murders' by Robert van Gulik is also good. It's based on ancient Chinese detective stories and has an oriental charm. And then there's 'Murder on the Orient Express' by Agatha Christie, which is set on a train journey through Europe in the 1930s and is full of twists and turns.

What are the characteristics of the historical fiction books in the list of 2010 historical fiction books?
Many of them would likely blend real historical events with fictional characters or storylines. So, you could have a story set during a real war, like the Napoleonic Wars, but the main characters could be fictional people whose lives are intertwined with the events of the war. This creates a more immersive experience for the reader as they get to see the big historical events from a more personal perspective.
