MurderSearch Volume 1

The killer isn’t in the list.
That is where the investigation begins.

MurderSearch Volume 1 is not a standard word search book filled with random words and filler puzzles. Every puzzle is a murder mystery. Every case hides evidence in plain sight. Every grid challenges you to think like a detective.

Inside this book, you will work through 64 murder mystery puzzles built around deduction, logic, and close observation, including 50 regular cases and 14 expanded cold cases. The regular cases unfold across two pages each, while the cold cases stretch across four pages each for a deeper investigation experience with extra reasoning and note-taking.

Each regular case begins with a short case file that introduces the crime scene, the suspects, and the clues. Then you move to the puzzle itself.

Your job is to solve three things:

WHO committed the crime
HOW it was carried out
WHERE it happened

But there is a twist:

  • The killer is missing from the grid

  • The location is missing from the grid

  • The method is hidden in the first letters of the clue words

That means you are not just searching for words. You are reading the case, studying the evidence, finding what is present, and noticing what is missing. The answer is not handed to you. You have to earn it.

The book also includes 14 special cold cases that go even further. These cases ask you to review the file, search the puzzle, weigh the evidence, analyze the suspects, and record your final deduction before checking the answer. They add an extra layer of investigation for readers who want more than a simple find-the-word activity.

Inside this book you will find:

  • 64 murder mystery word search puzzles

  • 50 regular murder cases

  • 14 expanded cold cases

  • 192 suspects

  • 1,200+ clues

  • A unique missing-word deduction mechanic

  • Investigation pages for deeper cold case solving

  • Space to record your reasoning and final conclusions

  • A puzzle experience designed for people who want more than a typical word search

This is the perfect book for readers who enjoy murder mystery puzzle books, word search books for adults, cold case games, logic and deduction puzzles, crime-themed activity books, interactive mystery books, and detective-style brain games.

If you love the feeling of spotting the clue everyone else missed, crossing off suspects, and piecing together the truth from scattered evidence, this book was made for you.

Find the words. Study the clues. Eliminate the innocent. Solve the murder.
