By: Jim Sukach

Grab your magnifying glass and polish your powers of observation before taking on the dozens of mini-mysteries in this crime-solvers' compendium. Match wits with the greatest gumshoes, including Inspector Ketcham, Dr. Quicksolve, and Sherlock and Sherman Holmes! Bursting with bad guys hoping to get away with it, this colossal collection gives you the chance to nab a jewel thief, finger a forger, and put a murderer behind bars. All the clues are here in these lively, illustrated narratives if you read closely enough. You'll examine faked masterpieces, decipher cryptic codes, and even determine time of death! From the crime scene to the courtroom, you'll be there as suspects are interrogated, witnesses are questioned, and physical evidence is examined. Once you put the pieces of the puzzle together, check your instincts against the official solutions. There's enough detective work here to challenge any sleuth-in-training.
