The old mansion cast a pall over the foggy grounds. A shadow moved stealthily towards the back entrance. A gloved hand reached for the locked door handle. A muffled scream echoed from within the dark house. Silence returned, broken only by a faint ticking clock. Heavy footsteps echoed on the marble foyer floor. A tall figure entered the dimly lit library. Blood sprayed the wall as a knife sliced the air. A lifeless body crumpled to the aged Persian rug. The killer turned abruptly, walking away. The Detective arrived on the scene soon after.
