Answer 1

A story about a detective trying to solve a mystery.

Step-by-step explanation:

Unreliable narrating has to do with a narrator whose credibility has been compromised and the term was originally used by Wayne Booth in 1961. An unreliable narrator contradicts himself, intentionally leaves out important details, or lies to the other characters.

The type of story that would be likely told using an unreliable narrator would be a story about a detective trying to solve a mystery because he does not possess information but is trying to have access to the information and he has the freedom to deliberately leave out facts or contradict himself.
