Night of mystery parties are the best. I've done a few in the past and they were always so much fun all my guests have a great time. The parties are easy to run and always lots of fun, the downloads are easy and the directions are easy. I would definitely continue ordering. Review: NIGHT OF THE JABBERWOCK by Fredric Brown An excitingly twisted, convoluted, puzzle, a mystery wrapped in an enigma, NIGHT OF THE JABBERWOCK is a true reading delight. This is the first of Fredric Brown's writing I'd read, and it's set me on a path to seeking out more.
The opening hour-plus of “The Night Of” spends almost all of its time with Nasir “Naz” Khan (Riz Ahmed from “Nightcrawler,” and also appearing in the upcoming “Jason Bourne” and “Star Wars: Rogue One” in an effort to have the most breakthrough 2016 possible), a Pakistani-American college student living in Queens. He seems like a nice kid, the kind stunned to be invited to a cool party in Manhattan on an October night. When his friend, who is also his ride, bails on him, Naz “borrows” his father’s taxi to go into the city. As he’s trying to find the party, a beautiful young woman gets into his cab. Brand new online casinos. She wants to go to the beach. She's pretty enough and mysterious enough that Naz plays along. By the end of the night, he’ll be arrested for murder.
This first hour, shot by the legendary Robert Elswit (“There Will Be Blood,” “Inherent Vice”) and directed by Steven Zaillian (all but one hour were helmed by the director of “Searching For Bobby Fischer,” and that one was directed by “Man on Wire”’s James Marsh), hums like the best procedurals. Modern, educated TV audiences know something is going to happen to Naz—there’s no show otherwise—but the premiere takes its time with details that you won’t even know matter until episodes later when the show is in trial. Every encounter, every decision, every moment feels both naturally captured—thanks in large part to Ahmed’s spectacularly lived-in performance, which only gets better in subsequent episodes—and also part of a complex piece of art. In that sense, “The Night Of” reminds one of Lumet’s '70s and ‘80s films in that character is never lost in the “bigger picture” of mystery or commentary. Lumet had an incredible ability to tell NY stories that were both sprawling and intimate. 'The Night Of' shares that duality.

It also doesn’t hurt that the arguable protagonist of the piece, attorney John Stone (John Turturro) has echoes of Paul Newman’s Frank Galvin from “The Verdict.” He carries around business cards with his smiling face and just happens on Naz in the precinct holding cell on the fateful night in question. Does he see innocence in Naz’s eyes? Or does he just see opportunity? Exactly what each of the key characters in “The Night Of” are getting out of the situation, especially major players like Detective Box (the great Bill Camp) and a young attorney named Chandra (Amara Karan), becomes essential to the way it unfolds. And when Naz gets to Rikers, where young men are held until trial and either hardened further or possibly even killed, he meets a career criminal (the mesmerizing Michael K. Williams) who sees him as an opportunity. “The Night Of” exemplifies the ripple effect of not just crime but the mechanics of a criminal investigation, from the men whose path crosses with Naz’s at Rikers to his family (including the great Asghar Farhadi regular Peyman Maadi as Naz’s father), unable to cover his defense.
Book number 8 in the series finds that Ann Lindell has quit working at the Violent Crimes Unit in Uppsala, Sweden and is now a cheese maker in the local town of Rasbo. A man calls the Violent Crimes unit and insists on talking to Ann. He says that someone might die and he has to talk to her. They have no idea who she is.
Then a fire burns down an old school in Rasbo that is housing asylum seekers and a woman has died in the the fire. After an investigation it’s determined it was arson. When Ann hears about it she decides she has to take on the case and then a bomb explodes in Stockholm and it’s clear one of the targets is Ann herself. Something about this mysterious person sounds familiar. And now Ann may be the only one to solve this case.
My first time reading one of these books and I really enjoyed it. The mystery and the interesting character of Ann makes for an enjoyable read.
