A PUZZLING MURDERby New York Times Bestselling Author Tim MyersBook 1 in the Puzzling Mysteries,First published by Penguin/Berkley/Prime Crime as A Deadly Row under the penname Casey Mayes.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 EvidenceThis 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."Dru's Book Musings
