Advertisement
Calling all Mystery and Thriller lovers! Get out your bathing costumes, swimming trunks and flippers.
Slap a deckchair onto the beach and grab your favourite summer read. You haven't got one yet? Well, how about if you write one yourself? Mystery has teamed up with @AdventureCommunity, @CoffeeCommunity @adultfiction and to bring you a very special cross-profile contest.
A body washes up on the beach. Where did it come from? Is it a stranger or someone you know? Are there more victims to come? Who finds the body and how? Your job is to tell us what happens next.
Are you key to solving the case? Does the body come back to life and start the zombie apocalypse? Does it become your strange and surreal ally ala Swiss Army Man? Did your victim perish to the dark lure of an evil mermaid?
The circumstances and details of the body are up to you. Stretch your imagination and construct a thrilling or whacky summer mystery adventure.
