The old mansion loomed ominously against the stormy night sky. Detective Sarah Harper stepped out of her car, raincoat dripping. A flash of lightning illuminated the body sprawled on grass. She approached cautiously, her trained eyes scanning the gruesome scene. Blood pooled around the victim's head, matting his silver hair. Sarah knelt, careful not to disturb any potential evidence nearby. The victim's unseeing eyes stared upward, frozen in eternal shock. A crumpled piece of paper protruded from his clenched fist. Sarah gently pried it loose, her heart racing with anticipation. As she unfolded the note, a name caught her eye.
