In 1934, the Observer’s cryptic crossword compiler, Edward Powys Mathers (aka Torquemada), released a novel that was simultaneously a murder mystery and the most fiendishly difficult literary puzzle ever written.The pages have been printed in an entirely haphazard order, but it is possible – through logic and intelligent reading – to sort the pages into the only correct order, revealing six murder victims and their respective murderers.Only three puzzlers have ever solved the mystery of Cain’s Jawbone: do you have what it takes to join their ranks?Please note: this puzzle is extremely difficult and not for the faint-hearted.
