A Thoughtful Mystery That Rewards Patience and Logic

Basil Khan and the Secret of the Heritage Clock is a steady, puzzle-driven mystery that places intelligence at the center of the story. When a respected clockmaker’s estate is unexpectedly awarded to a powerful family, Basil begins noticing small inconsistencies that others dismiss.

What makes this story engaging is its structured approach to mystery. Basil doesn’t rely on dramatic action or impulsive decisions. Instead, he observes, questions, and carefully pieces together clues. The investigation unfolds gradually, allowing readers to think alongside him rather than simply watching events happen.

Beyond the mystery itself, the novel explores themes of justice, integrity, and community responsibility. It presents a young protagonist who values reasoning over reaction and persistence over shortcuts.

Readers who enjoy classic, logic-based mysteries and character-driven investigations will appreciate the measured pacing and thoughtful tone.
