A 'murder party' style book full of clues and interviews with suspects
Mystery Puzzle Books
In this series of books, readers play the part of the detective who, in almost every page, is interviewing suspects about the crimes that have transpired.
There are very few illustrations in these books, the format instead following more of a 'murder dinner party' format, with each interactions easily being able to be played by participants dressed as each character, and with the book finishes with the reader asked to reveal the culprit. The book contains clues throughout to deduce the answer, and the solution area at the back walks through each step of how the final conclusion can be discovered.
