Established for the Curious

A Small Press for Gaslit Minds

Raven House Books is an independent press devoted to word-search and detective puzzles steeped in the elegance and intrigue of a bygone Britain. Each volume is a small time machine — part parlour game, part historical portrait — carrying you from candle-lit Georgian coffee houses to the fog-wrapped streets of Victorian London and the last golden summers before the Great War.

Every puzzle is written by hand, drawn from real moments in history, and set upon the page with the care of a fine old edition. Sharpen your pencil, draw the curtains, and begin the investigation.

A Four-Volume Collection

The Historical Mystery Wordsearch Collection

by E. Raven

Four elegant volumes carry you across the great ages of English intrigue. Each book gathers fifty original mystery-themed word searches, every grid set against a vividly imagined scene — highwaymen upon Hounslow Heath and body-snatchers in Southwark churchyards, a debutante's first ball, a suffragette's arrest, the first aeroplane crossing the Channel. Part puzzle, part portrait of an age.
