Here is the opening scene of a murder mystery where each sentence has exactly 20 words: Detective Jameson stood at the edge of the sleepy town'sMain Street, gazing up at the grand Victorian mansion looming. The mansion's once-white facade had yellowed with age, its intricate woodwork weathered to a soft, mossy green resembling decay. Earlier that morning, the local police chief had called Jameson, his voice trembling as he relayed the news quietly. Jameson had arrived to find police officers swarming the grounds, their footsteps muffled by the thick layer of fallen leaves. Inside, the air was heavy with the scent of old books and stale air, the silence oppressive and weighted with tension.
