Interaction with the reader is a wonderful opportunity the web allows that is not so readily achieved with an ordinary book. Thus, Murder in the Maldives has been transformed from its original classical short story format into a "You-Solve-It" where, should you wish, you have the opportunity to pose the solution to the mystery. Take the challenge, or simply jump to the hints and solution as time and desire pull you - you choose!
Clues may be found in the stamp's topic, theme, or design, as well as in philatelic details such as watermark, perforation, printing nd dates, etc.

For a puzzling stamp term, or if you are curious about the words philatelists throw around, The Devil's Glossary will help with the stamp collector's terms used in the story.
