Nothing captivates us like a good mystery—that which demands investigation and makes possible the great human quest for discovery. It’s why we puzzle and ponder impossible riddles, obsess over unsolved crimes, and why we mythologize the masterminds of detective fiction and the literary demigods they create. Albert Einstein wrote that “the most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious,” and called it “the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.” Our fascination with the unknown is matched only by an insatiable desire to explore. And, as anyone who has ever met a child knows, so-called answers often lead only to more questions. In an age when the internet awaits at our fingertips to answer our every passing curiosity, there is still so much to explore, every question yielding to a further, greater mystery.
