The Literal Red Herring

Editor's note: "Your red herring in chapter 9 is too obvious."

I didn't write a red herring in chapter 9.

I wrote an actual herring. Red scales. Swims. The detective was hungry. He ate it.

Now the mystery has no clues and the detective has lunch.

Editor: "Still too obvious."

I give up.
