The Literary Critic is found dead in the study – his whisky laced with poison. Suddenly, twenty of the greatest crime writers are suspects in a murder investigation. Was Agatha Christie, the ‘Queen of Crime’, defending her crown? Did Raymond Chandler decide it was time for the critic to take a ‘big sleep’? Assemble the puzzle, examine Inspector Jigsaw’s fold-out evidence board, and solve the case of who killed the critic. From the queens of the Golden Age of crime, Dorothy L. Sayers and Ngaio Marsh, to the kings of hardboiled detective stories, Dashiell Hammett and Chester Himes – alongside contemporary favourites Richard Osman and Asako Yuzuki – there’s a crime writer for every armchair detective. Puzzlers will learn about their lives and work as they study the finer details of each suspect’s bio and mugshot. Agatha Christie famously featured poisonings in over half her novels, but who else knew their toxic substances? It’s up to the puzzler to find out. Inspector Jigsaw has helpfully included a grid in his notebook to be filled out as part of the investigation. Once completed, the puzzler can reveal the murderer’s name inside a small envelope. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames \u0026 Hudson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57079246782808,"sku":"9780500421574","price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/6395\/0757\/files\/LITERARYMURDERCLUB.jpg?v=1775745956","url":"https:\/\/www.laurencekingverlag.de\/products\/the-literary-detectives-murder-club","provider":"Laurence King Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
