They all stare at you expectantly, like children waiting to be told a bedtime story. And who can blame them? You are, after all, Anthony Saint Germain, the great French Detective.

There is just one small problem. One tiny detail that makes it different this time. A mere trifle, really. This time you have no idea who did it.

How It Begins

They all stare at you expectantly, like children waiting to be told a bedtime story. And who can blame them? You are, after all, Antoine Saint Germain, the great French detective. No criminal has ever been a match for you, and everybody is looking forward to a description of your brilliant deductions.

There is just one small problem. One tiny detail that makes it different this time. A mere trifle, really. This time you have no idea who did it.
