That way I can see how the author planted the clues, it's the enjoyment of figuring out how they did it more than what they did. I enjoy the craft, and good craft is good craft whether you know the killer or not.
I admit, I'm much more of a spoiler person with TV/movies than books, but I do spoil books regularly.
