See it on AmazonA mystery puzzle book and an advent calendar in one. Every December, two thousand fish houses go out onto the ice of a small Minnesota lake. This year, the old warden who keeps them safe is found on the floor of his shack. The county calls it an accident.
His granddaughter has the twenty-four envelopes he left her, one for each night of Advent, and the permit register of every house on the ice.
Open one envelope a night, 10 to 20 minutes for the first nights and 20 to 40 after that. Solve the puzzle inside, and its answer completes his clue. Then cross out every suspect it rules out. By Christmas Eve one row is left, and you will know who it is.
