Frankie Vale used to be the best thief in the city. Now she catches them — and she needs a sharp mind. Every CAPER case is a logic grid puzzle: a few suspects, a few methods, a few locations, and a handful of clues that lead to exactly one answer. No guessing, no red herrings, no signup. Pick a free case below and work the grid.
Two complete cases from the books, exactly as they appear in print. Read the story, use the clues, then reveal the answer.
Someone hit the Voss-Aldridge Gallery last night and walked out with the centerpiece of the summer exhibit. Three names, three ways in, three places the job went down.
The count came up short at the Whale Room’s night drop — six figures gone before the vault even closed. Frankie got three names by sunrise.
A logic grid puzzle looks intimidating and works beautifully once you know the routine. Every CAPER case follows the same five steps:
CAPER: 50 Heists You Must Crack Using Logic and Nerve (Volume 1) and CAPER: 50 All-American Heists (Volume 2) hold 100 cases from easy to hard. They’re digital PDFs you can read on any device or print at home, with optional step-by-step Solutions Guides for each volume. Volumes start at $8.99 CAD.
A puzzle where you match items across categories, here suspects, methods and locations, using only the clues given. Each clue rules something in or out until exactly one answer is left.
