A VISUAL PUZZLE BOOK FOR AMATEUR SLEUTHS: CAN YOU SOLVE THE CRIME JUST BY LOOKING AT THE SCENE?

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Now available in English for the first time, following the worldwide success of a gripping social media whodunnit game!

Investigate the crimes in these 12 pictures to find the killers. Why is a broken bottle on the floor? What did the victim’s last text message say? What has been thrown in the bin? For each crime, choose what to inspect, then turn to the correct page to scrutinize the evidence.

Examine crimes of passion, million-dollar inheritance disputes, hidden identities and deadly secrets using all the tools at your disposal – not forgetting the internet and your powers of deductive reasoning. If you reach a dead end, using a mirror will reveal additional clues. Use them wisely…

  • Investigate the clues in any order
  • Complete with solutions and reconstructions
  • Use a mirror to reveal extra clues.

Remember, every Sherlock needs their Watson – but whether you choose to team up with others or tackle these crime scenes alone, only true detective spirit will reveal the killers.

Perfect for fans of puzzle books such as Murdle and Murdoku, escape rooms, crime fiction and true crime podcasts. Will you take on the challenge?
