Seller's description

Pick a clue. Pick a color. Find the killer behind the mask.

Murder at the Midnight Masquerade by Poppy Quinn is a standalone Halloween name-elimination mystery made for highlighting on your tablet. Search 6,000 full names, then solve separate place and weapon lists to complete the case.

DIGITAL DOWNLOAD ONLY: one 75-page PDF in English. No physical item, device, stylus, or annotation app is included.

THE CASE

At a Halloween benefit, organizer Julian Voss plans to make an important announcement at midnight. Before he can reveal what is in his envelope, he is found murdered. Work through the manor register and 18 confirmed clues to discover the person, the place, and the weapon.

WHAT YOU RECEIVE

• One 75-page, hyperlinked PDF
• 6,000 unique first-and-last names
• 48 possible places and 48 possible weapons
• 18 clues, each with its own highlighter-color box
• Linked indexes, page shortcuts, rules, and reference information
• A case-report page and space for notes
• Access to this case’s online answer checker

READ. HIGHLIGHT. REPEAT.

Read a clue, scan the relevant list, and highlight entries you can rule out. Choose one color or a whole palette; fill the box beside each clue with its matching highlighter color.

The clues use letter patterns, name lengths, and the printed positions of entries. All information needed to solve is included. There are no timed challenges or required outside trivia. Keep the original page layout visible; position clues refer to printed rows, columns, and pages, even after you highlight names.

PLAY ON A TABLET

Import the PDF into an annotation app that supports highlighting and internal links. A tablet is recommended for the three-column name pages. A compatible stylus is optional but useful.

The PDF includes starting suggestions for Apple iPad and Android tablets, including Goodnotes and Adobe Acrobat Reader. Apps are separate products and may have paid plans, trial renewals, or free-plan limits. App purchases and subscriptions are not included. Check your chosen app’s current features and pricing. We are not affiliated with these app makers.

CHECK EACH ANSWER SEPARATELY

The included link takes you to:
https://poppyquinnbooks.com/check/midnight-masquerade

The checker confirms the person, place, and weapon separately without revealing unfinished answers. Once all three are correct, you can read the case ending. No account is required. Answers are not printed in the PDF. Solve offline after downloading; internet access is needed to check answers.

PREFER REAL HIGHLIGHTERS?

You can print the PDF single-sided and arrange spiral binding yourself. Pages are 6 × 9 inches with consistent margins and room between names. Print a test page before printing the full file. Printing, binding, paper, and highlighters are not included.
