    Isle of Man Constabulary Digital Priorities 2016‐2017 October 2016 www.iompolice.im www.gov.im/digitalstrategy Isle of Man Constabulary Digital Priorities 2016 ‐ 2017 As outlined in the strategic plan, the challenges facing modern policing are complex and ever growing. Whilst the number of offences recorded continue to decline and the Island continues to be one the safest places in the British Isles to live and work, complex crime is growing and the Island is increasingly no longer insulated from an ever connected global society. In parallel expectations are increasing – citizens are rightly expecting more information, more immediate and digital contact with the Police and expect the Police to be adopting modern technologies – technologies which are also increasingly needed to keep pace with criminals. These two challenges are further complicated by the constant need for efficiency – funds available to the constabulary are at an all time low and the force needs to be adapting and seeking every opportunity to be more efficient and to target its precious resources in the places most needed. For these reasons the Constabulary has now embraced its own Digital Priorities – the priority projects and initiatives as part of Isle of Man Government’s overall digital strategy, to deliver improved outcomes from digital thinking , from using technology to work together – inside and outside the force across society, and to learn intelligently from the information available in a digital society to predict, react to and ultimately deter and prevent crime. A safe Island requires a modern, digitally enabled police force. One which brings fingertip information to its professional officers and staff when and where they need it.

On occasion, innovative writers have practiced in mingling these methods and generating an entirely dissimilar variety of categories. In general, genre fiction inclines to place plentiful significance on entertainment and, as a consequence, it leans towards to be more widespread with mass audiences. But currently, writers are lettering beyond mere meager amusement and they are commenting on various socio-cultural issues, resulting in their writing more realistic. Furthermore, various life real things and norms implied in their writing are constructing the entire genre form and all its types more noteworthy and vital. As accredited by literary jurisdiction following are some of the leading classifications as they are used in contemporary publication: Fantasy, Horror, Science fiction, Crime and Mystery Fiction etc. The kind Crime and Mystery Fiction also has various categories for example, Cozy, Hardboiled, The Inverted Detective Story, Police Procedural, etc. In the present paper, Canadian crime fiction writer Peter Robinson‟s novel In a Dry Season is studied in the light of this police procedural type of novel writing.
