WORDICIDES

The killer is among the letters

80 crime scenes disguised as word searches. In each case you look for the words on the list… but one never appears: that is the weapon. And the leftover letters, rearranged correctly, will whisper who did it and where. This is not about finding words: it is about solving homicides.

The method

You are not finding words. You are closing cases.

Every wordicide is solved in three moves. Simple to learn, impossible to put down.

🔍
STEP 01

Find the words

You have a list of case clues. Find them all in the grid just like any word search.

STEP 02

One is missing: the weapon

There is one word on the list that is not hidden anywhere. That absence is the murder weapon.

🔑
STEP 03

The leftover letters speak

Rearrange the letters you did not use and the killer's name and the crime scene will appear.

Case 81, hidden

A final file that unlocks online. There is a mole in the precinct, and you can only catch them by closing all 80.

INTERNAL AFFAIRS

There is a mole in the precinct.

For 80 cases someone has been erasing vowels to keep the truth buried. When you close the last file you will understand why those exact letters were missing… and you will discover that the one signing your orders was the one burying your evidence. Case 81 is waiting for you online. Only those who make it to the end get in.

A free clue

This is what it looks like inside

You look for DAGGER, POISON, SALON, ALIBI… You find them all except one. Which one is missing? That is the weapon. And with the leftover letters, the killer is no longer a mystery.

Each case is a minimal story with three answers: weapon, killer and location. No two are alike.

The ideal suspect

Who is this book for

For anyone who devours true crime and crime fiction. For anyone who has done a thousand word searches and wants one with a twist. For the person in your life who always figures out the killer before the ending. And for anyone who enjoys solving things with a pencil and a suspicious mind.

Interrogation questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be good at word searches?
No. If you can find a word in a grid, you can play. The fun is in the deduction, not the speed. The first cases are a gentle warm-up.

Is it a good gift?
It is one of those gifts that works: themed, original and with a mechanic that hooks you from the first case. Perfect for mystery fans.
What format is it in?
Paperback, in English, available on Amazon.
