Description (from the Deadbolt Mystery Society website):
Return to The Hideaway Motel (Mini Mystery) (August 2018) – Return to the sleepy town of Valley Falls and pull back the dingy curtain to take another look at its sordid underbelly. Head back to The Hideaway Motel and discover the secrets that a killer called The Magpie left behind. As you visit one of the most notorious spots in town, uncover one of Valley Falls’ most well-kept secrets and do so while trying to avoid a local mafioso hitman who goes by the name of Vito the Smile. Difficulty Rating – 7/10
Thoughts About This Mystery:
This was an extra box not part of the monthly subscription. It is a mini mystery about half the size of the normal monthly mystery boxes. It doesn’t take as long to finish, I did this one in about an hour. This mystery comes in an envelope not a box.
This one was pretty quick and there are only a few puzzles to figure out. Of course, I still needed hints.
This is a sequel to the first monthly mystery that Deadbolt Society came out with, that one was Murder in 3B. You do not need to complete the first part to do this mystery, it can be done alone, it is nice to go back and visit a place in Valley Falls again.
Check out the Deadboly Mystery Society website for some past mysteries and see what is in stock. The stock changes so if this one isn’t available you can check back or subscribe to their email list, they send out updates when they restock things.
*I am not affiliated with Deadbolt Mystery Society, I just love their mysteries.
That is an interesting entertainment concept.
I am having enough of a challenge getting my blog posts done for this month.
