Where would the quest for a yellow-bellied killer be without a scarlet herring? Even the voice of justice doesn't always speak the truth, so we're left to dig through the clues until the killer is revealed in black and white (or not?).

The thrilling concluding of the story is twisty in the best ways. I really enjoyed this story from the Clue universe, and I'd recommend it to anyone who is a fan of mysteries and the world of games.

Way better than the clue by Allor. This one inspires itself more directly from the board game (pre 2015, Orchid) and I think would be a good fit for fans.

It also includes cool puzzles that help you solve the mystery so I wish I had not bought it on digital.

Finally Dash Shaw has a more remarkable unique style than the other illustration. This is generally the better clue.
