Murder in the Village is the first book in the Murder Mystery Club Puzzle Book series. It brings a classic murder mystery game to a travel-sized puzzle book. Readers examine clues, eliminate suspects and piece together the evidence to work out who committed the crime, why and how.
The story follows Rosa Martinez, a young journalist who visits her great aunt Martha in the village of Wobberly End. A body appears in the market square the morning after she meets the Puzzle Club, a group of four friends who solve puzzles together. The investigation involves village rumors, a gala dinner, and a hunt for both the killer and the victim.
The book has one crime to solve and over 70 puzzles. Puzzle types include deductive logic, Mastermind-style combination and safe cracking, location tracking, visual puzzles such as spot the difference and hidden pictures, and date, time and event ordering tasks.
