Our Story

About The Thanksgiving Sleuth

The Thanksgiving Sleuth was born from a love of cozy mysteries and the desire to bring the thrill of armchair sleuthing to the heart of the holiday season. What began as a simple concept—a collection of puzzles set during family reunions and harvest festivals—has grown into a beloved chapter of the Sleuth Puzzle Collection.

We craft 150 original, clean mystery puzzles that challenge adults and teens to think like detectives. From bustling kitchens to long-standing traditions, our stories are filled with suspects, clues, and surprising twists that require careful observation and logical deduction.
