Detective Jameson stood outside the mansion with a stern expression. The rain poured down on the dark and deserted streets. Neighbors complained about the noise coming from inside the house. Police sirens wailed in the distance, a constant steady beat. The family patriarch, Richard Langley, was known for ruthlessness always. His wife, Elizabeth, was frantic, pacing back and forth wildly. A crime scene tape stretched across the driveway tightly secured. Forensic experts analyzed the scene, collecting evidence carefully collected slowly. A piece of torn fabric caught the light faintly shining. A drop of blood fell, marking the floor with crimson.
