The hundred-or-so Minute Mysteries listed here come with the ANSWER to the mystery listed side by side with the mystery, in this format:

• The object of minute mysteries (aka lateral thinking puzzles) is for you to unravel the mystery, based on very limited and somewhat ambiguous clues.
• You are given a scenario (usually involving a death of some sort), and you have to deduce what has happened.
• Someone must look at the solution so that you can ask them questions to try and figure it out.
• The questions have to be phrased so that the only possible answers are yes, no or not relevant.
• There is no limit to the number of questions, and it can be helpful to have multiple people working on the case.
