The Carter Files: 100 Egyptian Expedition Murder Mystery Cases

By Tessa Hollcroft

Every puzzle in this book is a death at the dig.

The Carter Files collects 100 original Egyptian-expedition mystery word search

cases, each one built around a single trick: the evidence isn't beside the puzzle,

it's inside it. Solve the grid, and three pieces of evidence surface on their own.

Here's how it works. Cross out every word from the case's list that you can find

in the grid. One word will be missing - that's your first clue. Then look at the

letters no word touched. Read them in order, and they spell out the rest: the

culprit, the means, and the site. The letter boxes beneath each case tell you

exactly how long each answer runs, so there's only one way the evidence fits

together.

The book builds from a gentle 8x8 grid in Case 1 to an 11x11 grid with

backward-running answers by Case 100, so it plays fair whether you're new to word

searches or you've been doing them for decades. A fully worked example opens the

book, so nobody has to guess at the mechanic before the first case.

Includes:

- 100 original cases across 25 settings, from a sealed tomb to a Nile steamer

- Four difficulty tiers, Beginner through Expert

- Complete solutions for every case

- A short scene from the expedition detective Carter's desk opening each case

Every case has been independently verified for a single, unambiguous solution

before publication.

Find the words. Follow the clues. Name the culprit.
