Holmes is supposed to be dead. Unfortunately, mysteries don’t respect time off.
A Sherlock Holmes Escape Book: The Adventure of the Pharaoh’s Tomb puts you in the detective’s shoes for an adventure combining escape-room challenges, puzzles and storytelling. It’s 1892, and Holmes is lying low after his apparent demise at the Reichenbach Falls. Then Mycroft brings news of a missing young archaeologist: Howard Carter.
Your task? Investigate the disappearance and work out how to reach the heart of a mysterious tomb complex. Across 128 pages, riddles, logic problems, word games, mathematical brainteasers, maps and mazes put your powers of deduction through their paces. Looking thoughtful will only get you so far.
Written by Dan Smith, author of How to Think Like Sherlock, this paperback is the seventh title in the Sherlock Holmes Escape Books series. Its interactive format gives readers a mystery to tackle, with plenty of opportunities to play detective.
A clever birthday or Christmas gift for Sherlock Holmes fans, escape-room enthusiasts and puzzle lovers, it brings an intriguing case to their favourite armchair. No deerstalker required, although they may feel it helps.
