This reminds me of the TV series Bates Motel. The beginning of EINTY reveals what happens through telling us that Lydia is dead. This is similar to the series because it is based on the life of the serial killer in the movie Psycho, though the TV series delves into the detail of his life growing up and why he became a killer. I feel like this is similar to EINTY because we know the outcome, and the rest of the book is just showing us the lead-up.

I still believe this is a prevalent issue today, and may be more widely known by the public through modern media

I'm reminded of a TV series that used different episodes without any chronological order to reveal things about the characters and their background
