Is this a novel or a puzzle book?

It is a puzzle book. Each of the twenty cases is a single illustrated scene you solve from the picture and clues, with answers provided.

How hard are the cases?

Most are light to medium. Some are solved in a few minutes, while a handful need close attention to small visual details.

Can several people solve it together?

Yes. The scenes work well for two or a small group, and the book is often used as a party or dinner-table activity.

Does it need an app or extra props?

No. Everything is in the book; you only need the page and the answer section.

Is it suitable for children?

It is aimed at adults. Older teens can enjoy it, but the murder themes and some clues suit a grown-up audience.

What do you get in the book?

Twenty illustrated mystery cases plus a solutions section, in a hardcover with a die-cut cover.
