SUSPEK - Murder in Edinburgh

Edinburgh, the first day of the Festival. Harriet MacKenzie, 68, proprietor of The Mercat Cross Books on the Royal Mile since 1972, is found slumped over the back-room desk of her own shop, a half-finished teacup beside her and a slim Stevenson volume open at "Requiem". Inspector Hartmann takes the case and slides the order book her father started in 1928 across the table. Inside: thousands of first names, fifty-four years of customers in two generations of MacKenzie handwriting. One of them belongs to the killer. SUSPEK is not a crime novel you simply read. It is a case you solve yourself. Read the clues, cross out the innocent and find the killer before the trail goes cold. SUSPEK is puzzle-crime on paper. Reading, puzzling, thinking, no screen, no app. You sit at the table with the book, cross out names, compare lists and follow every trace. At the end, one name remains.
