Classic crime fiction has also influenced the way crime is portrayed. In Dashiell Hammett's books, the seedy underworld and the morally ambiguous characters were presented in a new light. This has led to modern crime stories exploring the darker side of human nature more deeply, and not always having a clear - cut hero - villain divide.

They probably feature interesting detectives or protagonists. These characters often have their own quirks and backstories that add depth to the story. For instance, a detective with a troubled past might be more driven to solve a case. The settings in these books also play an important role. They could be set in gritty urban environments or small, seemingly idyllic towns where dark secrets lurk beneath the surface. This contrast between the appearance and the reality of the setting adds to the overall atmosphere of mystery and suspense.

Many of them might deal with contemporary issues. They could touch on things like social inequality or power dynamics. Also, the settings play an important role. In 'Long Way Home', the small Quebec village setting adds a unique charm and also affects the way the mystery unfolds. The writing styles can vary widely, from the more straightforward narrative in some to the very psychological and in - depth exploration of characters in others.
