You start by meeting up with the local detective, who informs you of a few extra suspects to the crime.
“Hello Piper, nice to see you here, we really could do with your help. The papers have been gone for more than 24 hours now and we are worried they may already have been moved on. We have already taken one person into custody, a local thief Emma Herbert, who was seen acting suspiciously on the morning after the crime. Other lead suspects are a known antiques dealer Nick Teak who specialises in black market sales, and also a local historian Mark Evert who is known to be an avid Anti-Stratfordian theorist; believing that Shakespeare was not the writer of his works and he was never the rightful owner of them.
Whilst the two lead actors of the final performance claim they were in their rooms, the night manager of the hotel tells us there were definite movements from one of the bedrooms last night.
Well, that’s all I’ve got for you now. We think the guard who survived will be waking up today so you may want to pay him a visit. He will be devastated to hear of his friend’s death.
If you need any more help just press the hints button, and I can give you two clues: as well as two clues from the crime scene officer.
Good luck Piper"
