Rain polished the courthouse windows while Detective Mara Voss discovered Judge Bellwether's body beneath the chandelier, clutching a blue button. Everyone gathered inside insisted the locked courtroom had remained empty, though muddy footprints crossed the aisle toward the judge's vacant bench. Mara noticed eight witnesses watching her carefully, each wearing identical blue buttons sewn beneath their collars, like concealed evidence. Then the courthouse clock struck midnight, and Judge Bellwether's dead hand slowly pointed toward the youngest witness present. Nobody spoke until the lights vanished, leaving Mara alone with the corpse, eight suspects, and footsteps circling overhead.
