The second book, still untitled, will be released in August and will coincide with the show's season finale.

On Whodunnit?, the players will not be killed off, but will get kicked off week by week if they are not able solve the mysteries they are given. The series will continue until there is a single winner, who will collect a $250,000 prize.

Zuiker, in a news release, said he had "a passion for mysteries and crime solving" since he was child.

"The best part for fans is that once you've finished the first season of the show, you'll be able to transition back into not just the second book, but a whole series," Zuiker said.

The plot of the first book follows the classic murder mystery setup: 10 guests will travel to a remote mansion and Butler Giles is the only resident in the home. The guests soon discover that there is a murderer among them, picking them off one by one. They are forced to discover who it is.

It was announce earlier this month that all 22 episodes of Season 12 of CSI will be released on DVD on July 1.
