Murder Most Puzzling Peril at Quandary Park

A Mysterious Case to Solve

I so enjoyed this title that I went back and looked for the first in the series which I had not read. Anyone who enjoys puzzle solving will, I think, find this book engaging.

Meet the characters and see their portraits, then plunge into the story. There is much to discover.

Solutions to the individual puzzles often depend on deciphering the visual clues in the detailed illustrations that seem reminiscent of Edward Gorey. The text also engages the solver/sleuth. In fact, the reader is referred to as “you.”

I could not always figure out the answers to the individual puzzles but that is ok. The answers when I looked at them made sense. The fun is in trying.

Hopefully by the end, readers will know who killed the biscuit heiress. Fans will hope that another book is forthcoming.

Recommended to puzzle solvers and mystery lovers.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for this title. All opinions are my own.

I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses! View all posts by joycesmysteryandfictionbookreviews
