Is this a novel or a puzzle book?

It is a puzzle book. The murder story frames a series of riddles and logic puzzles you solve yourself, rather than a prose mystery you read straight through.

Do I need to have read another book in the series first?

No. It is the first in the Murder Most Puzzling series and stands alone.

It is a hardcover activity book meant to be worked in, so pencil is the sensible choice if you want to keep it tidy.

Is it suitable for teenagers?

It is listed for an adult audience. The puzzles are approachable, but the murder premise and period tone suit older readers.

How long does it take to finish?

At 104 pages it is a short book, and most solvers work through it in a few sittings.
