Collection: Detective Book Nook

The easiest is the Mose's Detective Agency miniature house, a small detective office with 159 pieces rated easy. It takes about three hours, even with no experience. Detective Agency, a miniature house with 115 pieces, is an intermediate build of about four hours.

The other models take more time. The Museum Mystery (232 pieces) and The Long Goodbye (238 pieces) are intermediate. Dark Box Mystery Case (270 pieces), the two Sherlock Holmes style agencies, Rose Detective Agency and Detective Famous Agency (322 pieces each), Train Mystery (338 pieces) and Key Tracking (375 pieces) are rated difficult.

For someone who reads mystery novels, from Agatha Christie to Sherlock Holmes, and likes seeing a detective's desk, magnifying glass and evidence board on the shelf. For a fan of detective games, escape rooms or crime shows. For anyone who likes English-style decor with dark wood, leather and green lamps.

It's also a great gift to build as a pair: one person builds the office, the other places the clues one by one. A younger builder can put one together with a parent.

Three kinds of scenes. Detective offices first: Rose Detective Agency and Detective Famous Agency recreate a Sherlock Holmes style study with a desk, a magnifying glass and case files, while Mose's Detective Agency and Detective Agency are smaller, open-sided offices. Then crime scenes: Dark Box Mystery Case shows a room where everything is a clue, Key Tracking a crime scene to investigate, and Train Mystery the car of a luxury train where a murder has just happened. Finally, The Museum Mystery is a museum where something has gone missing, and The Long Goodbye is a big-city back alley at night, straight out of a detective novel.

They all share the same mood: warm light, papers everywhere and a hidden detail you only spot up close.

The best-selling detective book nook in our shop is Rose Detective Agency.

It sets the investigation on two floors. Upstairs, a plaid armchair faces shelves of old books, with a grandfather clock, a globe and a magnifying glass near an open notebook. Downstairs, the street has a lamp post, a red fire hydrant and KEEP OUT barriers blocking the door. The signs read Rose Road and 221B, a nod to the most famous address in detective fiction. It has 322 pieces at the difficult level: plan on about 6 hours of building.
