The Puzzle Master’s Casebook — Case Three: The Oktoberfest Disappearance
Every witness knows something. Not every witness is right.
Tessa Nix walked away from Helen Oktoberfest on a crisp October evening and never made it home. Forty-eight people crossed her path, from the festival grounds to the back roads of the North Georgia mountains, and every one of them remembers something. Your job is to find out what really happened.
Each witness account is locked behind a chain of puzzles. Solve a sudoku, decode its answer, unlock a crossword, then search the hidden words to uncover what that witness saw. But accounts contradict each other. Eliminate what doesn't hold up, and the trail comes together one clue at a time.
Eight chapters, six witnesses each. Every chapter ends in a Lock that turns six accounts into a single clue. Eight clues lead to one Final Solve.
