Find Me If You Can: Special Agent in Charge - Level III
Top clearance. Hardest case. One name, buried in thirty-five hundred.
They only hand this file to the agent who doesn't miss — and the con artist knows it. So the newest alias is buried deep, in grids packed with thirty-five names apiece, behind fifteen clues built to punish the smallest slip.
One hundred dense word searches. Thirty-five hundred suspects. Fifteen true statements that mean nothing until you apply them, in order, without a single wrong cross. Crosses a longer name. Placed on a backward diagonal. Fifteen letters of truth, and only one name survives all of them.
This is the level where good agents put away the wrong person. Be perfect and you close the file for good. Be human, and the culprit's already three names ahead.
For expert solvers who want a word search that fights back — fair-play deduction with the pressure of Catch Me If You Can.
Take the top file. Prove you're the one who doesn't miss.

Content Notes: Fictional mystery framing; common given names used for puzzle construction only.
Somewhere in every book, a con artist hid a name — and dared you to find it.
Find Me If You Can is a word-search mystery series with a spine of real logic. Each book hides one culprit inside a hundred grids of innocent names. You find the names, then apply a set of true clues — crosses a shorter name, runs backward, three vowels — eliminating suspects one by one until a single name is left standing.
It's not an ordinary word search. It's a fair-play hunt you solve with a pencil, styled like a 1960s FBI case file, right down to the letter the culprit leaves you in every book.
Every level is a brand-new case with a brand-new culprit — so you can start anywhere, or climb the ranks:
• Cadet · Level I — 15×15 grids, 1,500 suspects, 10 clues. Your first case. Beginner-friendly.
• Agent · Level II — 20×20 grids, 2,500 suspects, 14 clues. The trail gets longer and the margin thinner.
• Special Agent in Charge · Level III — 20×20 grids, 3,500 suspects, 15 clues. The hardest file the Bureau hands out.
Pick the level that fits you — or take all three and work your way from rookie to the top of the Bureau. Every book leaves you a full answer key and a final reveal, so you always find out whether you caught the right name… or let an innocent take the fall.
One wrong cross and the name's gone by morning. Think you can find it? Grab your case file — or the whole set — today.
