Hello all,

I just finished reading The Silkworm and found out who the killer was. As I was reading I kept thinking back and trying to remember if I could connect the dots like Strike did and figure out who the killer was along with him. I then started wandering had I looked up who the killer was online before I started reading the book, would it have been possible to pick up the clues.

Did you ever do that, find out the solution to a murder mystery book before reading it just to see if you could pick up on the clues?

    would it have been possible to pick up the clues.

    This is where I have fun rereading mysteries. Picking up on the foreshadowing layered into the story. Seeing what I may have missed when first reading. Knowing who done it doesn’t distract from the story, it just makes the nuggets and hints more fun.
