The Widow's Manuscript: A Regency Murder Mystery Bookstore Crawl
Solve a 200-year-old murder and literary mystery by investigating clues at six Chicago indie bookstores!
The mystery:
In 1816, Earl Cyril Blackwood was murdered in his own library. Twenty years later, his widow—acclaimed mystery novelist Lady Amelia Blackwood—died under similarly violent and mysterious circumstances in the same library. For nearly two hundred years the questions of who murdered the Blackwoods and what became of the manuscript of Lady Blackwood's final, unpublished novel have haunted the literary world.
The contents of Lady Blackwood's library, until now held in a private collection, have recently gone to auction and many of those dusty old volumes have ended up at bookstores throughout the city. Are you up to the challenge of tracking them down and using the clues hidden inside to determine who killed the Blackwoods and finally solve the mystery of The Widow's Manuscript?
