Puzzle House

De: Duncan Ralston

Narrado por: Joe Hempel

Six strangers arrive at the home of preeminent puzzle master Alexei Vasiliev for the reading of his will.

Among them are the deceased's widow, who'd already begun divorce proceedings, a virologist troubled by actions in his past, and a convicted murderer on day release. The potential beneficiaries will split Vasiliev's $150M fortune if they participate in his last great work.

The choice is simple: leave the house with nothing or continue in the hope of solving the six interconnecting escape rooms within this house.

Once there, the participants soon discover Puzzle House is far deadlier than it appears and that making their way through the rooms may be a matter of life and death. Someone is watching their every move, toying with them, turning them against each other. With their lives on the line, they are forced to wonder, is it all just a deadly game created by a gleeful sadist or something far more sinister?

great story/ narrator

this book will keep you guessing and bitting your nails to the very last sentence! I was engaged in every part. if you love a book you have to work to figure out the next move this is the one for you! narrator is excellent!

horror without a point

I think the puzzles in this puzzle house were clever, but I'm not into unending horror an unrealistic plot and a dismal ending. it was very well performed and I'm sure there are many who like this genre and enjoyed this.

Lots of surprises

I loved this book! I couldn’t stop listening! So many great twists and turns….all the way through to the end! I highlight recommended.

It was just meh

It was a decent premise but felt quite like a rip off of saw. The end felt rushed and lame to me.

Not a fun read

Did not like this book. I would not recommend reading this book. Not a good premise.
