At midnight, Inspector Vale discovered a corpse beneath the library’s grand clock, its hands stopped precisely at twelve. Rain lashed the windows while seven guests gathered silently, each concealing secrets behind expressions carefully schooled into innocence. Vale noticed a silver thread clutched tightly in the victim’s fingers, glimmering beneath the chandelier’s trembling light overhead. Nobody spoke until the clock chimed once, though its mechanism had remained broken for nearly three years. Then, from upstairs, someone screamed Vale’s name, and every suspect turned toward the staircase with identical terror.
