Dead Man’s Gambit

On November 10th 1921, the patriarch of a wealthy family is
murdered and leaves behind a mysterious journal that holds
cryptic entries illustrating his death and his killer. Between a
deceitful second wife, a suspicious friend, a shady nephew, a
corrupt butler, a mysterious orphan, and an estranged
daughter, Detective Alfred Hanley must navigate the troubled
waters to find the truth. Although not all is what it seems, one
thing is to be certain: shadows, monsters, and murder lie deep
within the Pearse Family.
