Cain's Jawbone: Tiktok's Mystery Puzzle Book

Published on: 29th July, 2022

Cain's Jawbone is a murder mystery puzzle book that is a real treasure. It was published in 1934 and only three people have solved this mind-bending riddle. Tiktok has taken the reins, giving this book the resurgence it deserves and maybe one of our crew will be the 4th to unravel this literary anomaly, and get a treasure in return.

Avni, @blissfullybreaking on TikTok and all other platforms, helps Reily work out the strange web that Cain's Jawbone has woven around not only us, but Tiktok. (and she's totally awesome)

Please go give Avni some treasured love: @blissfullybreaking
