Dr. Tim Furlith sounds familiar
When you get to Dr. Furlith's office at the University, you realize
something just isn't quite right. You feel that cold, dead air that
means someone is dead. Most people wouldn't notice it, but your twenty
years of detective experience have taught you a few things.
You search the room for the body. Where could it be? The office was
tiny, but there was no body in sight. Then you see it. The closet door
is just slightly open. You can't describe it, but there is just a
feeling that you get when closet doors are opened that way. Someone
dead is inside.
You open the door and see it. Dr. Furlith's body scrunched up in the
corner of the closet. You search his body for a cause of death. There
are cuts and bruises all over. Obviously a fight had taken place. You
look around the closet for a murder weapon. Who knows? The murderer
could have been really stupid and left the weapon right there for
anyone to find. There's no murder weapon but there is something else.
The royal blue velvet box for the stolen diamond. And it's empty.
Now this case had turned into more than just grand theft. It was a
murder.
Dr Tim Furlith. Where have you heard that name before? Of course! He
was a geology professor at your Alma Mater. You remember that class
you took with him. Geology 101, AKA Rocks for Jocks. You decide to
check him out first. Even if nothing turns up about him, he could at
least be good for some expert advice on diamonds.
