2 million copies sold: this brilliant murder mystery book is the puzzle book for adults
perfect for your vacation
Do you, like me, really intend to spend less time on your phone during your vacation? I'm curious if it will work, but I will really try it once. There might be two types of vacationers. Are you the one who finally intends to finish that thick book? And then still ends up spending hours on Instagram? Or do you quickly download a few series for the road? Okay… guilty as charged. Apparently, I'm just both. But… now I have something new myself (and no, this is really bourgeois)
Alice is not the murderer.
This is not a novel. Not a sudoku. Not an escape room. But a delightful murder mystery book where you are the detective this time.
I have never had a puzzle book in my life. But now I heard about this murder mystery and thought, I want that! Because a worldwide hit with two million copies sold is not popular for nothing.
One corpse. 46,600 suspects.
Okay, a bit standard, but there is a corpse in Alice Starling's apartment. The police are pretty sure: she, Alice, did it.
Only… Alice says she didn't.
In fact, she claims she can prove she is innocent. Provided you help her.
And that's where the addiction begins… Now.want.to.
With 18 clues, a file full of evidence and no less than 46,600 suspects you will cross off names step by step. Until only one person remains: the real murderer. Perfect for your days at the beach.
Why everyone is talking about this
Well, this (international) puzzle series on which Alice is not the murderer is based, has sold more than 2 million copies worldwide. Not so strange either, because it combines all the tension of a real thriller with the satisfaction of an escape room. Also nice instead of Instagram, right?
You don't need anything else. No wifi. No app. No batteries. Just a pencil.
The perfect vacation book
This is really perfect. The ideal book for your hand luggage. On the plane, at the airport, on the beach, by the pool.
Before you know it, you've spent an hour without even once thoughtlessly picking up your phone.
How often does that happen these days?
Beware: you want to keep searching
Okay, addiction warning in advance: don't start if you just want to “take a quick look”. Because after the first clue: you really want to continue.
So, before you know it, you're in the middle of a murder investigation, analyzing alibis, crossing off hundreds of names (tip: do this with a pencil in case of mistakes, then you can erase!) and you are determined to exonerate Alice.
So, maybe Alice is not the murderer is also the best option for you to at least strive for a digital detox summer?
Now. Want. I. IIG. Know. Who. Did. It.
‘Alice is not the murderer’ is available here.
