The rain lashed the mansion windows; shadows danced as the detective stepped into the bloodstained hall. A silver pocket watch, half-buried in a vase, ticked backward from midnight’s hour unchanged. The hostess claimed she’d never seen the room’s key; the lawyer’s alibi dissolved like ink under a storm’s glance.

The typewriter hummed a blank letter; no bullets remained in the gun, but two expended shells glinted in the chandelier. The butler offered wine as the cat leapt, agitated, then fled toward the nursery where no one dared go. Every clock in the house lay paused, yet footprints oozed from the west wing’s sealed door—impossibly wet, and fresh.
