The victim lay face-down on the blood-stained carpet, a gunshot wound clearly visible in the back of his head. Detective Reese arrived on scene, her keen eyes immediately scanning the room for any potential clues that could point to a suspect. The victim was a prominent businessman, well-known in the community, which made the brutal murder all the more shocking and perplexing. No weapon was found on the blood-soaked rug, indicating the perpetrator most likely took it with them after the killing. Near the body, Reese noticed a tiny gold charm shining in the dim light of the living room.
