Has the feel of Trap Is the Only Option if the detective admits it's suspicious but think it's worth the risk.

Sounds like Come Alone to me. Searching needs a somewhat outside-the-box approach - you don't know the name of the trope, so you need to work with your associations. Try typing phrases that evoke the trope for you, or have a look through pages for works you're reasonably sure would contain it. Indices are also helpful - this particular trope is only in Stock Phrases, but if you're thinking of something associated with detectives, you can check Film Noir, Cops and Detectives or Mystery Tropes.
