About this book

Welcome to Harrow's Cove: a quiet seaside town with a surprising amount of crime

Retired librarian Mabel Finch has just come home, and the cases are already piling up. A poisoned teacup at the manor. A body under the pier. A prize quilt gone from the fair. And at every scene of the biggest thefts, a brass button stamped with a little bird...

This is a murder mystery word search: 120 connected cozy cases, one complete case on every page. Read the short story, circle the bold clue words in the grid, and the leftover letters spell out who did it.

How every case works

  • A short whodunit on every page, with the suspects listed under the story
  • Clue words in bold, so you always know what to find
  • The leftover letters reveal the culprit: write them in the answer boxes under the grid
  • One telling clue in every story: name the culprit before you finish the grid, if you can
  • Every solution explains the deduction, so no case ever ends on a cliffhanger

120 cases, one hidden thief

Six chapters take you from the summer harbor festival to Main Street, Whitlock Manor, the autumn fair and a snowbound inn. Each case closes on its own page, but the stolen treasures and brass bird buttons lead to a final case where the mysterious Collector is unmasked.

  • Cozy mysteries: poisonings, thefts, sabotage and alibis, with no gore
  • Case board to track your progress, plus detective's notes pages
  • 6 x 9 inch pages with clear, bold letters
