This book, first published by Penguin/Berkley/Prime Crime as A Deadly Row under the penname Casey Mayes, is now offered to you as A Puzzling Murder by New York Times Bestselling Author Tim Myers, first in the Puzzling Mystery series.
Savannah Stone makes her living creating math and word puzzles for small town newspapers across the United States, but when a real life death threat comes to her small North Carolina town, she must solve the puzzle before her friend, the mayor, gets a final solution of death.
PRAISE FOR THE PUZZLING MYSTERIES
Mayes is quite good at planting clues and red herrings. Those with a taste for the logic puzzles that Savannah creates may have more of an edge in solving this than readers who don't, but there are hints that a non-puzzle oriented reader can use to figure out the solution. A DEADLY ROW is quite a pleasant traditional mystery, with just enough police procedural thrown in to keep it interesting.
Reviewing The Evidence
This is obviously a well thought out and plotted series.
Once Upon a Romance
GRID FOR MURDER (A PUZZLING CRIME) is an adeptly written, intriguing mystery. I anxiously await the next book in this series!
Fresh Fiction
Lots of mysteries to enjoy with this one!
The Neverending TBR
Casey Mayes has written a fascinating amateur sleuth-police procedural starring a husband and wife couple who work well together.
The Merry Genre Go Round Reviews
This was a good mystery with a great plot and lovable characters. The bonus of three puzzle games (two of which I aced) added to the enjoyable series and I can't wait to spend more time with the Stone family.
