One shadowy Christmas Eve, someone shrieks, the police is called, and a man dies in his very own home. Alexander Boddy, multi-billionaire and man of many secrets, was murdered while hosting a dinner party. The Broughton Police Force has called upon you, detective. With your critical thinking and deduction skills, can you uncover the mysteries surrounding his death? Find the truth under a series of lies, sins and corruption? Or get taken off the case altogether due to your incompetence?
But one must always balance work and life. It's Christmas Eve, the most magical time of year, and the crime scene is a long drive from home. Your children await at your home, staying at your brother's house due to your out-of-doors work and a bleak divorce. Can you solve the case in time, or will this be another lonely Christmas for all parties?
Today is the day you redeem yourself.
NOTE: Due to the fact that this is a murder mystery, and therefore there is only one correct way to solve this case (catching the correct killer), the gameplay is fairly linear. However, SCORE does exist, and may rise or fall depending on your decisions. For more information visit the "Introduction" at the first page of the story.
