Answer:

Explanation:

Yes, considering the plot twist at the end that shows the motorcycle scenario was a dream, this was an effective option. This choice is an interesting way to structure the story because it allows the reader to become acquainted with the plot before moving on to the suspense and anxiety of coping with a manhunt. This is a good way to start a story because it whets the reader's appetite for more. He or she may like to know why the accident occurred, as well as the repercussions and outcome. A successful narrator should find a way to include those in their writing to keep the reader's attention. The feeling of suspense will cause the reader to turn the pages of the novel, trying to find out what is going on.
