This tutorial: Clues that place people directly, and crossing out what is left. A coach note walks you through every mark.

It is closing time at Fernley Library. Ada is finishing the returns, Basil is bringing back a cookery book, and Cora is waiting out the rain. In the morning, the librarian finds something left open that should not have been.

What happened

Someone left the archive unlocked overnight, using the spare key.

  • Ada Penroseretired librarian
  • Basil Okaforbaker
  • Cora Lindqvisthead gardener at the allotments

The clues and your notebook open together. Time only counts while the case is open.
