How to Solve a Murder presents 70 mini mysteries! A modernization of H.A. Ripley’s Detectograms from 1932, this stately looking book of puzzles gives readers the opportunity to embody the spirit of a Private I, the shrewdness of Sherlock, and the energy of Enola in puzzles they can solve in under a minute. From sinister stories of stranglers and false alibis to speakeasy stick-ups, this book of mysteries has all the glamor of eras gone by and the stimulation of modern puzzles ready to decode. Readers will find satisfaction in being able to train their brain to solve crime on their own time.
