2.0 out of 5 starsIt was just plain to difficult., March 23, 1999

This review is from: The 10-Minute Detective: 25 Scene-of-the-Crime Mystery Puzzles You Can Solve Yourself (Paperback)
The cases were impossible to solve even when all the clues were read. The twists and turns were hard to follow. An example of this is in one case you were supposed to know that the criminal was hiding in the bathroom, with no clues that lead in that direction. DO NOT PAY 12.00 FOR THIS BOOK.

2.0 out of 5 starsGreat premise, poor execution, February 17, 2002

This review is from: The 10-Minute Detective: 25 Scene-of-the-Crime Mystery Puzzles You Can Solve Yourself (Paperback)
This book sounds fascinating, but be sure to try one or two before purchasing it. The mysteries often require such things as "it wasn't suspect 2 because she sounded sincere." Well how is the reader to know this?
A few of them were more straighforward and solvable, but for the most part at-home sleuths will find themselves wishing the author had been the victim in at least one of the murders.
