A word from the author

Hi! I'm Rúben and I have a daughter.

I love deduction puzzles for grown-ups — Murdle-style — and I wanted to make a version for kids, swapping tricky mysteries for a hidden kitten.

The kitten is called Obikwelu, after a real black cat with big blue eyes that I once had. 🖤

Each puzzle has one and only one solution, so parents and kids can solve them together, thinking and having fun side by side.

Start with the easy ones and see how far you get — the last ones are tough even for grown-ups!

Happy hunting, little detectives.
