#364 Whodunit?

Anyone who’s spent enough time with me would know that I’m a huge fan of detective fiction and murder mysteries. From Agatha Christie classics to more contemporary works, such as Rian Johnson’s Knives Out, there’s just something about a good whodunit that keeps me on the edge of my seat, trying to piece together the clues and identify all the red herrings before the protagonist does.

This week, let’s write stories centered on themes such as mystery and deceit. Can you fool our judges until the very last line?
