Death in Paradise bosses make 'big news' announcement

Death in Paradise viewers may have to wait a few more months until they're taken back to the fictional island of Saint Marie to watch DI Mervin Wilson (Don Gilbert) solve more mysterious crimes.

In the meantime, fans are able to put their own detective skills to the test as bosses of the BBC show have shared an exciting announcement.

For a limited time, people can try to solve their own challenges and see whether or not they have what it takes to join the police team in the Death in Paradise Puzzle Book.

Taking to Instagram this week, the official account for the show shared the cover of the book as they wrote: "Big News! For a limited time only, you can get a copy of The Death in Paradise Puzzle Book for just £9.19 on Amazon!

"Casting you among your favourite characters on the island of Saint Marie, the puzzle book features 150 murderously challenging brain-teasers to test your wits! Get your copy now!"

It wasn't long before people commented on the post, with one person sharing: "I have mine and I absolutely love it"

Someone else wrote: "I got mine [sic]" Thrilled, another fan tagged a friend as they commented: "No way!"

Giving a review of the book online, one person commented: "Great for fans of the show. I bought it for a long journey and it helped pass time so quickly.

"Variety of different puzzles that all feed into the storyline, some easier than others but generally a good level of difficulty. 100% recommend."

While another shared: "Great present for a Death in Paradise fan." Currently on Amazon the book has been given 4.5 stars and is the number one best seller in the TV Tie-in Humour category.

Filming for the next series is currently underway, as the show's Instagram confirmed a few weeks ago.

Season 14 was an emotional end as viewers saw Commissioner Selwyn Patterson (Don Warrington) decide to leave the island.

Saying his farewell to Catherine Bordey (Elizabeth Bourgine), he revealed he was going to visit his daughter, with no return date set in stone. It's unclear whether or not the fan favourite will return for series 15.

Death in Paradise episodes are available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
