Which Sarah? A Solve-It-Yourself Case File

Description

Case file one. Wexbridge Constabulary.

Daniel Mercer is dead at 11 Harlow Row. A woman is in custody, and the file against her is thorough. She has said one thing since her arrest: “You have the wrong Sarah. I mean that literally.”

She is right, and the file cannot see it. Two women share a name, and the record has quietly filed them as one. Some details are reliable. Some are incomplete. Some are true, but attached to the wrong Sarah.

This is not a novel. It is the file itself: custody records, witness statements, phone logs, lab findings and torn pages, printed in black and white on aged paper stock with evidence tags, rubber stamps and paperclips. There is no narrator to trust. You read the exhibits, mark the contradictions, and decide which evidence belongs to which woman.

40 exhibit pages. When you are ready, submit your findings and Wexbridge will return its verdict.
