The Midnight Bell Murder
Hard difficulty · Fictional mysteryThe investigation
Can you see what the scene is hiding?
At midnight, the great bell of St. Orlan's rings once. Minutes later, master restorer Elias Renwick is found dead inside a locked chamber. The sound of the bell is crucial, but it does not mean what the witnesses think it means.
Evidence noteThe bell marks the moment the scene changed—not necessarily the moment of death.
This is an original fictional fair-play mystery. The clues are presented for entertainment; no real people or events are depicted.
