Description
The game is afoot! This sumptuously illustrated book invites you to solve a series of murder-mystery-themed puzzles set on an English country estate. When the beautiful socialite and heiress of Hatchett’s Biscuits & Wafers is found dead at her annual summer soirée, you find yourself at the scene of the crime: the mysterious Quandary Park, a country manor full of riddles, hidden doors, and secrets.
Thanks to your puzzle-solving prowess, you’ve been hired to investigate the events surrounding the death of Adelaide Hatchett and her quirky cast of party-guests-turned-suspects, including the high-spending scoundrel Cyril Blight, the infamous tattoo artist Tatiana Outlawe, and Bertrand Hellebore, the retired botanist who is convinced Adelaide’s last will and testament was forged.
Over the course of Murder Most Puzzling Peril at Quandary Park, you will explore the eccentrically decorated manor, discover clues in the sculpture garden, and sleuth out evidence in the nearby village. But be careful—the murderer is still on the loose!
With gorgeous gothic-style illustrations throughout, this clever book of logic puzzles will have you poring over both the story and the art to catch the Quandary Park killer. Prepare yourself for an intriguing adventure full of wit and opulence, plus a touch of the macabre.
BESTSELLING SERIES: A follow-up to the popular Murder Most Puzzling book and jigsaw puzzle series, this interactive book features more of the eccentric characters and fiendish logic puzzles Stephanie von Reiswitz fans know and love.
SATISFYING MENTAL CHALLENGE: This enticing set of brain-teasing puzzles combine to solve one overarching mystery. As you make your way through the Hatchett mansion, you'll discover clues and piece together a tale of intrigue, impersonation, and, perhaps, murder. The combination of visual and story-based clues makes this collection an excellent brain game exercise for adults.
MURDER MYSTERY FANS: Von Reiswitz's charming, witty prose complements her moody illustrations to create an atmosphere that evokes Agatha Christie, Edward Gorey, and Knives Out. This book promises hours of entertainment for individuals or groups and is a perfect gift for mystery lovers.
DELIGHTFULLY GOTHIC STYLE: Each page of this handsome volume features illustrations full of rich colour, hidden details, and playful dark humour. After all the mysteries have been solved, it remains a beautiful art object to peruse and display.
GAME NIGHT FUN: This interactive logic puzzle book is a delightful analogue activity to bring friends and families together; bring it out at parties or after dinner for a fun, collaborative challenge!
