A peaceful small town is glowing beneath the crescent moon. Costumed children wander between pumpkin-lit houses, autumn leaves cover the streets, and every porch is ready for Halloween.

Then a resident is found murdered.

The celebration has become a crime scene, and somewhere among 32,021 full-name suspects is the one person responsible.

This is not an ordinary word search and not a mystery you simply read. It is a complete investigation that you must solve.

The detective has gathered 21 carefully constructed clues based on famous places, letter patterns, name lengths, neighbouring entries and hidden relationships within the suspect register. Each answer reveals another fact about the killer.

YOUR INVESTIGATION:
• Solve the clues and uncover the facts hidden inside each piece of evidence.
• Search the suspect register and eliminate every name that fails the test.
• Follow three stages of evidence as the investigation narrows from thousands of suspects to a final handful.
• Make your accusation before opening the sealed solution and discovering whether you identified the killer.

Built-in progress checks help you confirm that your investigation remains on course, while answer spaces and clue boxes allow you to record your deductions as the case develops.

Inside the case:
• 32,021 possible suspects
• 21 connected clues
• One complete standalone murder mystery
