Six murders. One hundred pages. Millions of possible combinations... but only one is correct. Can you solve Torquemada's murder mystery? In 1934, the Observer's cryptic crossword compiler, Edward Powys Mathers (aka Torquemada), released a novel that was simultaneously a murder mystery and the most fiendishly difficult literary puzzle ever written. The pages have been printed in an entirely haphazard order, but it is possible - through logic and intelligent reading - to sort the pages into the only correct order, revealing six murder victims and their respective murderers. Only three puzzlers have ever solved the mystery of Cain's Jawbone: do you have what it takes to join their ranks? Please note: this puzzle is extremely difficult and not for the faint-hearted.

Nato da un gioco iniziato alcuni anni prima nel bloghttp://eiochemipensavo.iobloggo.com/(ora trasferito su http://eiochemipensavo.diludovico.it/ )il libro è una raccolta di "Fincipit", termine coniato da Stefano Bartezzaghi durante il gioco. I commentatori del blog infatti hanno usato incipit veri di libri esistenti modificandone la parte finale, stravolgendone di conseguenza il senso in modo da dare un effetto comico e dissacante

Questo è un libro serissimo, anche se si ride dalla prima pagina all’ultima. Anche se è pieno di ambulanze che viaggiano a sirene spietate, anelli impestati di diamanti e automobili fuorisede con il salvasterzo. L’autore, d’altra parte si sa, è uno studioso. Esperto di enigmistica e linguaggio, studia l’”allegria” delle parole e in queste pagine ha raccolto le “frasi matte” inviate dai lettori di “Lessico e Nuvole”, la rubrica che tiene sul «Venerdì di Repubblica»: un libro per farsi trascinare con coscienza e leggerezza nel paese dei balocchi delle frasi impazzite, dare nobiltà agli inciampi e alle smagliature del linguaggio, ridere senza riguardi delle bucce di banana del parlato.
