That’s the problem with being a fan of detective/mystery novels/tv/movies.
I always feel like the father in Shadow of a Doubt (1943 movie…pretty good) who’s hobby it to sit around with his best friend discuss the best ways to kill someone without getting caught.
(Note they are not professional hit men, it’s just their hobby. I would think mystery writers do that too.)

IIRC, there are online and print resources to help detective writers get the murder “right”.
