Cozy Detective Story

A Cozy Detective Story refers to the classical who-dunnit type of murder mystery made famous by Agatha Christie and Sir Arthur Conan Doyaly. It's one where the murder or crime often times has already taken place prior to the start of the story and the resolution of the case is primarily an intellectual exercise. When compared to the brutal, violent world of the hard boiled detective, the cozy detective lives and works in a civilized world where brains beat brawns and the settings are relatively comfortable, if not luxurious.
