Your investigation begins where it all went wrong. Agent X briefs you on what we know — and what we don't — about Bella Wanderlust's final night. Pen and paper ready: the clues start now.
Percy Shadows runs ghost tours for a living. He led the tour the night Bella died, and he saw something. His version of events sounds rehearsed — but is he hiding the truth, or just playing the part?
A medical expert weighs in on the cause of death. Some poisons leave no trace — except for those who know where to look. The official report and the real story don't quite match.
Walter Bridges loved Bella. So he says. Family ties, hidden inheritances, and a relationship that was never quite what it seemed. The boyfriend always did it — except when he didn't.
Charlotte's arts district holds more than sculptures and stages. Among the museums and the marble, a name surfaces for the first time — a name that doesn't appear in any of the official statements.
By day a place for picnics, by night a place for meetings that aren't supposed to happen. Find the three-digit number hidden in plain sight — it unlocks what comes next.
A new face enters the case, with a connection to Bella that doesn't show up in her social feed. Innocent until proven otherwise — but every story this person tells gets a little less convincing.
A recording falls into your hands. Carol Olsen has something to say, and not much time to say it. Someone wants Percy dead — and the message reads like a warning, not a confession.
On the busiest street in Uptown, a coded farewell points to one final encounter. "See you in the afterlife." Whoever wrote this knew the next move before you did.
At Charlotte's symbolic heart — where Trade meets Tryon, where the city was founded — a numerical sequence guards the truth. Get the order right, or watch the trail go cold.
A handwritten note, a phone number with a country code, and a final piece of evidence. "Better luck next year" — a throwaway phrase, or the line that breaks the case wide open?
Six suspects. One killer. Review every clue you've gathered, name the murderer, and see if you cracked the case in time. The wrong answer means the real killer walks free — and the next victim is already being chosen.
