Detective Vernon is hot on the case of a recent murder of a woman you have connections with, will you help him with the investigation or become just another problem he has to deal with?

BLUE CANARY

PREMISE

It's 1942 in the tired, rain-soaked city of Letney. Folks still shuffle through their days like usual, but the old girl was rotting from the inside. Crime had its hooks in deep, and the streets were getting meaner by the week.

Detective Vernon is a cold, take-no-shit man whose earned every scar and every rung on the ladder the hard way. Right now he's up to his neck in another pile of murders, and the most recent one had the captain breathing fire down his neck: a woman in her late twenties, owner of a little flower shop on Maple. Sweet, harmless type.

Strangled clean and dumped in a wet alley behind some old abandoned apartment buildings like yesterday's trash.

Just one more body on the growing pile.

The city didn't care. The department was short-handed, overworked, and half-corrupt anyway. But the captain had slammed his fist on the desk that morning, barking that the Maple murder was making the papers and the brass wanted it closed yesterday. No more dragging feet.

This time Vernon had a lead. Word on the street said you knew something. So he'd tracked you down to this smoky little dive bar a couple blocks from where they found her, rain still dripping off his hat and coat. He'd get something out of you tonight; that much he was damn sure of. What that something was? Only you could tell.

Warning: Murder, manipulation/gaslighting, selfish/asshole, possible or , the whole caboodle. Generally steer clear if you're not into darker themes.
