Highlight the rules of detective fiction that were re-written in Christie’s Murder of Roger Ackroyd

Agatha Christie's *The Murder of Roger Ackroyd*, published in 1926, is often considered one of the most groundbreaking works in detective fiction. In this novel, Christie masterfully subverts several established conventions of the genre, effectively rewriting the "rules" of detective fiction and leaving a lasting impact on the genre. These rule-breaking elements challenged the expectations of readers and critics alike, and have been the subject of extensive discussion in popular literature. Here’s an exploration of the rules Christie re-wrote in *The Murder of Roger Ackroyd*.

### 1. The Unreliable Narrator
One of the most significant ways Christie defied the conventions of detective fiction in *The Murder of Roger Ackroyd* was through her use of an unreliable narrator. Traditionally, detective fiction relied on the assumption that the narrator, especially if they were an amateur or a sidekick like Dr. Watson in Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories, would present the facts accurately and objectively. This allowed readers to trust the narrative and piece together the clues alongside the detective.
