Work out puzzles and read at the same time. This puzzle book of 276 cryptograms, once solved, holds three stories, all well-written, intriguing, and rare. The complexity of the cryptograms is determined by the word choice and the sentence structure of each story, as well as by the length of the puzzle. Be prepared for the unexpected. The stories are plucked from three books published between 1899-1921 by three talented authors of lesser renown. As you solve the puzzles, the stories are revealed, but don’t let that stop you from working in whatever order you like. Solving these cryptograms is an entertaining means to an entertaining end. Two hints are provided for each cryptogram.
