Rain slicked Harbor Street as Detective Mara Ellery arrived at Graylock Manor for yet another impossible murder at dawn alone. Inside, the butler whispered that Lord Graylock vanished from his locked library, leaving only blood on lilies near the fireplace. Mara noted the window latch unbroken, yet a keyhole held fresh filings, suggesting someone escaped eagerly, tonight without leaving footprints. A maid trembled beside the hearth, insisting she heard violin music before the scream, then silence returned candles guttering low. On the floor, a single glove lay intact, stitched with initials that matched the victim's secretary named Celeste Ward, scribbled. Mara lifted it, smelling lavender and smoke, and vowed to question every guest before midnight locked again around this mansion.
