Six murders. One hundred pages. Millions of possible combinations... but only one is correct. Can you solve Torquemada's murder mystery? 'If James Joyce and Agatha Christie had a literary love child, this would be it.' The Daily Telegraph In 1934, the Observer's cryptic crossword compiler, Edward Powys Mathers (aka Torquemada), released a novel that was simultaneously a murder mystery and the most fiendishly difficult literary puzzle ever written. The pages have been printed in an entirely haphazard order, but it is possible - through logic and intelligent reading - to sort the pages into the only correct order, revealing six murder victims and their respective murderers. Only three puzzlers have ever solved the mystery of Cain's Jawbone: do you have what it takes to join their ranks? Please note: this puzzle is extremely difficult and not for the faint-hearted. 'A unique hybrid of word puzzle and whodunnit.' Literary Review

"CAN ONE BOOK CHANGE THE WORLD? The answer is a resounding 'Yes!' In his first book, Jack Tafoya unveiled How NUMBERS CONTROL OUR LIVES. This book goes a step further to challenge the two all-time best sellers in a way never seen before. Jack explains the covert connection between the bible - The Word of God, and the dictionary -God of The Words. And more importantly, how the English Language controls our civilization. This book explains how the English Language is the source of power behind religion, education, and the government, the ultimate tool of social control that hidden and powerful interests use to enslave us. It shows how the dictionary defines the way thoughts and concepts are formed using English as the language medium. It also reveals how the bible defines behaviorism, religious beliefs, and social mores, while serving as a foundation for government in the U.S., Canada, and Britain. This one-of-a-kind book offers you a very clever and provocative look at how the English Language is used to manipulate people's thoughts and how America has become the pawn to control the worlds masses. It lays out clearly how language shapes human thought (via the media) and how large bodies of human thought energy can shape events. It takes the reader deep into the mystery surrounding the origins of the English Language, the most ingenious and diabolical mind control tool ever devised by man. How could anything be more powerful, dictatorial, and persuasive than this? This book has the answers, painstakingly brought forth by its author over many years of deep research. It explores how separate languages were selectively merged together to form a powerful, covert tool. This synthesis became the 'vicarious', 'confusing', Universal English Language that controls us all.
