The Shooting Party starts off with a Framing Device: the unnamed editor of an unnamed newspaper receives a civil servant, Ivan Petrovich Kamyshev, who is absolutely desperate to get his detective story, The Shooting Party, printed in the paper. The editor initially gives little thought to it, but once he starts reading it he's drawn in, not least because it's true...Notable for being the only full-length novel written by Anton Chekhov.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })

Artistic License – Law: In-universe example. The editor catches Kamyshev out on his doing things no investigating magistrate would ever have done, including stalling for time, shoddy cross-examination, letting the evidence be washed away, and lying in court.

Character Filibuster: Zinovyev. At one point the editor has to remove a filibuster because it's that egregious.

Jerkass: Zinovyev acts like this when he's drunk, and reveals he murdered Olga just for kicks. He also doesn't care when the innocent Urbenin is sent to Siberia and might have died on the way. Arguably he acts like this all the time, though, judging by his treatment of Nadezhda.
