Who Killed Alice?: A Murder Mystery Logic Puzzle & Elimination Game for Adults

Alice let her killer in herself.

No forced door. No broken window. Just a woman found in her own apartment on a Tuesday morning, and a detective who pulled every list Alice's name had touched in the last months of her life.

The doorman's logbook. The contacts in her phone. The gallery guest book she signed the week before she died. Twenty case files. Forty-six thousand suspects. Every one of them, technically, a person who could have walked through that door.

Before she was pulled onto another case, the detective wrote eighteen findings into the record. Eighteen plain, provable facts about the one person who did it. Then the file landed on your desk.

This is not a book you read. It is a case you close.

Take a clue. Cross out every suspect it clears. Take the next one. When all eighteen are honestly applied, exactly one name is left standing on the page — and that name killed Alice.

Here is what makes this one different. The eighteen clues are shuffled on purpose, and the book tells you so. Read them all before you cross out a single name, and the order you choose is worth hours . A solver who orders well finishes in about ninety minutes. A solver who starts at Clue 1 and works straight down is still crossing out names six hours later. Same clues. Same killer. The difference is how you think.

46,000 real suspects across 20 named case files — 140 pages of register 18 clues, not 30. No bloat, no second killer, no gimmick ending Nothing from outside the book. No trivia, no pop culture, no general knowledge. If you can read a name, you can decide every clue Built with slack in it — one wrong crossing-out costs you a handful of names, never the whole board Check your answer free online in ten seconds. The solution is not printed anywhere in the book, so it is never spoiled for the next person No screens, no app, no batteries. A pencil and an evening One killer. One provable answer. Forty-six thousand names between you and them.

Close the file on Alice.
