i was wandering about how i should write my detective novel and need your opinions. i have 3 possible set ups
1: the novel has the characters solve 2 or 3 cases a book and have it focus mostly on the detectives and their live while solving the crimes
2: the novel has one major book long case that the detectives have to solve but wile they work on the big one they solve 1 or 2 smaller ones
3:i go with the standard set up
the reason i ask this question is some of the bad guys I've come up with don't seem like they could carry a whole book by themselves. this is mostly a technical question of whether you think it would work or if it might be to crowded
