This book contains three solitaire mystery adventures. In each adventure, the player first creates a private investigator character by distributing points between three attributes (Muscle, Moxie and Magnetism), then attempts to solve a mystery by moving from location to location on a map of Los Angeles. Locations on the map can only be visited when they have a star next to them, and only a few locations are marked at the start of an adventure. Each story also has two goals: to survive, and to solve a mystery. Survival relies on good decision-making and luck with attribute tests; mystery solving requires that, in addition to surviving, the reader finds all of the objectives of a given mystery and deduces the solutions to those objectives by using clues gathered during play. Thus, each adventure works not just as a gamebook but also as a "solve it yourself" mystery novel in the vein of Encyclopedia Brown or Two-Minute Mysteries.
