An advent calendar with a murder inside it. Two separate mysteries, Silent Night at Hollybrook and Last Train to Edelweiss, each run from December 1 to 24 with one puzzle a day. Every puzzle gives you a clue, every clue crosses people off a register of about 500 names, and on December 24 one name is left. Play one this Christmas and save the other for next Christmas, or split into two teams and race.
How a murder mystery advent calendar works
Each day from December 1 you open one page and solve one puzzle: a code, a logic grid, a word search or a maze. It takes 10 to 25 minutes. The puzzle gives you a clue, and the clue rules people out of a register of about 500 names. Cross them off, check your count against the page, and come back tomorrow. On December 24, one name is left.
Who to play it with
Play alone with a coffee before work, pass the book around the breakfast table, or split into two teams and race. With 2 mysteries in one book, you can also play one this Christmas and save the other for next Christmas.
When to order
The first puzzle is for December 1. Amazon prints and ships the book, so order in good time and have it in your hands before the month begins. Looking for more ideas? Read our guide to advent calendar puzzles for adults or our list of Christmas games for family and groups.
