The chandeliers flickered as Detective Morrow entered the grand ballroom. He stepped over the velvet rope surrounding the victim's body. Madame Dubois lay still, her silver mask cracked beside her. A single champagne glass stood overturned on the marble floor. Everyone at the masquerade wore masks, hiding faces behind silk. Tonight, those masks concealed something far more dangerous than secrets. The orchestra had stopped playing when the first scream echoed. A crimson feather lay across the victim's open palm nearby. Morrow noticed scuff marks dragging toward the garden's French doors. Whoever killed her hadn't lingered long after committing the deed. But they had made one unforgivable mistake before fleeing tonight. Something personal, something pointed, something that clearly spelled out revenge.
