The Literary Detectives' Murder Club: a whodunnit 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle

Twenty literary greats. One victim. Can you solve the puzzle and the murder?

The Mystery Writers’ Murder Club members are gathered in the library at Murderly Manor when disaster strikes: The Literary Critic is found dead in the study, his whiskey laced with poison. The Literary Critic has never written a novel, but he has savaged dozens of them and ruined the lives of more than a few mystery writers. Every club member has the motive and means for murder, and Inspector Jigsaw suspects them all.

Can you piece together the puzzle, follow the clues on the foldout poster, and use your deductive powers to crack the case?

You can enjoy this as a standard, 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle or step into the role of detective with the bonus murder mystery. Don your finest deerstalker hat, pick up your magnifying glass, and solve the case with the help of the foldout poster. Record your deductions, then open the envelope to check your answer, and reveal the murderer.
