THE VICTIM ISN'T DEAD
-
"Ok so it's a murder mystery but YOU solve it. You cross them off one by one using the clues until you find the killer. I've never seen anything like it. Took me a few sittings over a couple of days and I kept thinking about it when I put it down lol"
-
"Bought it because I was sick of scrolling my phone every night and honestly it worked. It kind of turns the chaos in your brain off? You just sit there with a pen crossing off names and it's weirdly relaxing. My teen stole it off me so now I have to order another one"
-
"Warning! Addictive. I sat down 'for five minutes' and lost two hours. It's hard but not annoying-hard, and honestly so satisfying when a clue clicks and you get to cross off a whole chunk of names. Wasn't happy til I solved it. Highly recommend! 😅"
WHY IS THIS BOOK SO ADDICTIVE?
WHY IS THIS BOOK SO ADDICTIVE?
Unlike traditional mystery novels where you simply follow the story, The Victim Isn't Dead challenges you to piece it together. Across twenty chapter-opening fragments, Margot's story unfolds out of order through different cities, years, and carefully constructed lies. As you follow recurring details and work through 15 clues, you'll search a register of 37,000 names and constantly question your theories. Nothing is included by accident, and every connection brings you closer to the hidden name at the centre of the mystery. It's difficult to put down because every fragment adds another piece to the story, and one overlooked detail could change everything.
CAN YOU REALLY SOLVE THE MYSTERY YOURSELF?
CAN YOU REALLY SOLVE THE MYSTERY YOURSELF?
Yes. Every clue you need is printed in the book, and every one of them is solvable with logic alone. There are no lucky guesses, no tricks, and no impossible leaps. Just deduction. Each clue eliminates suspects, and if you apply every clue correctly, exactly one name will survive. There's no answer printed in the book to spoil it, either. When you think you've found the killer, you check your answer on our verification site and find out if you're right. 🔎📖
DO I NEED A DETECTIVE CASEBOOK?
DO I NEED A DETECTIVE CASEBOOK?
You can absolutely solve the case without the Casebook, plenty of readers do. It's simply there to make the solve smoother and help you stay organized across your sittings.
It includes space to work through each clue, track which chapters and pages you've cleared, and log the names still in play as the field narrows. Instead of flicking back through the book trying to remember where you got up to, you'll have your whole investigation in one place.
It's completely optional, but if you like working methodically, the Casebook turns a big solve into a satisfying, organized one.

About the Author
Lana Kaper has always been fascinated by the stories people invent, the identities they hide behind, and the lies that survive longer than the truth. Inspired by classic crime fiction, psychological thrillers, and intricate mystery puzzles, she set out to create something different: a mystery where readers do more than follow the story, they piece it together. The Victim Isn't Dead challenges readers to connect scattered fragments, notice recurring details, and search through a register of 37,000 names using 15 carefully constructed clues. Every page is designed to reward sharp observation, careful deduction, and the satisfaction of uncovering the truth before the final reveal.
"I bought this on a whim and ended up finishing it in two days. The mystery is incredibly well thought out, and the clues are hidden in a way that rewards careful readers. There were multiple moments where I felt certain I had cracked the case, only to discover I had completely overlooked something important. The twists were smart rather than shocking for the sake of being shocking, which made the ending even more satisfying."
"I do a lot of puzzle books and this is genuinely unlike any I've ever seen. It's not over in a couple of minutes like a sudoku, it actually makes you think and concentrate. A few clues in you start second-guessing everything and going back over names you already crossed off. In a good way lol"
"I've read dozens of murder mysteries, but most of them simply tell you a story and reveal the answer at the end. This book was different. It constantly encouraged me to pay attention, question my assumptions, and connect clues for myself. The mystery was clever, the pacing was excellent, and the final reveal was worth every page. I immediately wanted to discuss my theories with friends after finishing it."
