The rain fell hard against the old Victorian windows tonight. Detective Mara Stone entered the dim library with cautious steps. Lord Pemberton lay face down near the cold marble hearth. Blood stained the Persian carpet in an ugly crimson pattern. A crystal vase lay shattered beside the dead man's hand. The killer had turned the study lights off before fleeing. The butler waited outside, twisting his gloves with nervous hands. Mara knelt to examine the deep wound without touching anything. Footsteps echoed loudly from the hall beyond the grand staircase. Another guest screamed upon seeing the blood and broken glass.
