The article analyzes the images of detective heroes presented in the novel by F. Scheunemann “The Mystery of the Runaway Safe.” By using the method of holistic analysis of a work of fiction, it was established that these characters in the novel are divided into two groups: amateur detectives and professional detectives. The first category is represented by the images of teenagers Kira, Tom and Paulie, the British breed cat Winston Churchill and the yard cats Odette, Chups, Spike and Francesco, the second – by the image of a criminal police officer Bange. The main means of representing these characters are speech characteristics and expressive artistic details. By initiating their own investigation into the mysterious thefts of safes from Hamburg schools, cat heroes and teenagers get an additional opportunity to demonstrate their best qualities, such as responsibility, diligence, seriousness, and thoroughness. As a result, this detective “union” of teenagers and cats contributes to the successful solving of a crime. Such an “intersection” of two storylines not only increases the level of reader interest in this work, but also reminds young readers of the importance of friendship, mutual assistance, and the need for a careful and caring attitude towards animals. The image of the professional detective Bange in the novel is presented schematically. Using an expressive detail – the absence of a police uniform – F. Scheunemann emphasizes the exclusivity of this character, and also focuses on the key features of the latter – seriousness, thoughtfulness, the ability to correctly and quickly assess the situation. The image of this hero, on the one hand, is subordinated to the goal of enhancing the didactic pathos of the work, on the other hand, his assessment of the activities of Tom and his team allows the reader to understand the true significance of the images of amateur detectives in the artistic world of this work.

This thesis is in the form of a novel titled 'High Spirits' and an exegesis, 'Behind Dry Ink in Set Patterns'. The novel traces the life of an Australian girl from birth to her mid-teens. Rose Sommers is adopted by a couple who have returned from prisoner-of-war camps in Singapore after World War II. Set in the early 1960s, the narrative starts with Rose at thirteen running away from the family farm to Perth. The novel has six flashbacks in the first third to tell the story of how the parents adopted and treated her: her adoptive mother was unbalanced and her adoptive father was a weak man. When she arrives in Perth, the buildings and crowded streets terrify Rose, so she runs straight through to bushland in Kings Park. There she teams up with Bela, a Hungarian refugee-and from there she is on her own. Through periods of great deprivation, including drug addiction and the birth of two children, Rose is in constant battle with the law and bureaucracy. From a religious rebel to a spiritual seeker, from a bikie's moll to a folksinging star, Rose's fortunes fluctuate wildly. She has relationships along the way, but as usual with relationships of those adrift in society, these come to grief. In the end, Rose battles to return to a 'normal' life for the benefit of her child-a scenario so often 'true to life' in contemporary society. The exegesis comprises two independent but supportive essays. The first essay is autobiographical, exploring how I came to write a novel about a teenage girl in the 1960s with a drug problem. The second essay focuses on an exploration of the novel's similarities and differences to YA novels and how such literature can help shape a young person's thinking
