Detective novels by Doyle, Christie, and others are read in great number by Patricia in her library. These novels allow Patricia to rely on her mind, as it is the one part of her body that still functions fully following the accident years before. These novels represent a challenge and solution in reason, which in turn help Patricia to more fully and objectively understand the murder of Olesen.
