Book Description

Even if you start out with a brain that's operating perfectly well, by the time you're halfway through these 36 whodunit puzzles you'll be lucky if you can remember your name! You start by getting caught up in an argument among some musicians, and try to find out who started it; then the dispute turns more serious, when one of the choir members gets murdered. Later, a friendly game of cards features a bit of cheating that leads to a killing; and then a backstage whistling incident causes still another death (many actors believe it's bad luck to hear whistling before a performance). There's much more, for there are 29 culprits to catch, plus seven other puzzles where you must find a missing word or number. Start each Mind Baffler by reading the problem to be solved, then use the handy solution scheme to keep your facts straight. You can peek at hints and clues, and if you're still stumped, then study the pointers on what kind of logic to use, or use the sets of Solution Starters that will put you firmly on the trail of the evildoers. Sterling 128 pages, 60 b/w illus., 5 3/8 x 8 1/4.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun to solve puzzles a challenge for most any one., February 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mind Bafflers (Paperback)
Savored this book page by page. Great fun to work together (or against) friends on the internet to see who can get the answer fastest. One of my friends occasionally solved the puzzles by writing a computer program. I told him that was cheating but he had great fun doing it. The puzzles involving adding or multiplying words to get other words were amazing and popular in our group.
