FIND HER IF YOU CAN

THE 40,547-CITY MANHUNT PUZZLE · BY CELIA VANE
SHE WALKED FREE. HE DIDN'T.

Three years ago they stood trial together for the murder of the woman he chose over her. Clue by clue, she turned herself into a survivor and him into a killer. The world wept for her, campaigned for her, called it justice.

Then the evidence cracked. She had forged all of it. He is still in a cell; she is gone.

All she left behind is this ledger: 40,547 cities, towns and ports, written in her own hand. One of them is where she is living right now.

Sixteen clues are printed in the book. Every one is true. Every one clears the innocent.

The seventeenth clue was never allowed into print. It lives here.
