Disorderly Detective

Craft a detective story about a detective who cannot remember the details of the case he is investigating.

What happens when a detective becomes the ultimate unreliable narrator, forgetting the details of the case they are trying to solve? Inner monologue and flashbacks become the essential tool of storytelling as pieces of the forgotten mystery slowly unravel. This prompt offers a humorous exploration of the detective genre while discussing serious themes such as memory loss, identity, and determination.
