Midnight Casebook

The case archive

Every Midnight Casebook mystery so far. A new case lands every night at midnight: search the scene, hear the witnesses and name the killer, the method and the motive.

Each case is a short, fair whodunit: an illustrated crime scene, voiced witness statements and one solution in three parts — who, how and why. Tonight's case is free, and so are the first three cases.

  Five guests. One poisoned glass. A storm that kept everyone inside.

  Every clock in the workshop stopped at four. So did Arthur Penrose.
