Yesterday marked the tenth anniversary of the signing of the armistice that ended the War to end all Wars. The European economy is today, though, in another war – one of survival. It is in shambles, and many factions struggle for power with promises of better times to come. Last night, however, at a secluded spot in Florida known as Sandy Ring Island, a celebration had occurred. For comrades in arms, wounded in the service of their nations during that Great War, toasted their reunion.

All three had been sent to the same French military hospital to recuperate. There, they had become staunch friends. When the peace treaty was signed, they vowed to be together again a decade after the end of the conflict. At a rustic lodge on the Gulf of Mexico called Sea Breeze they had kept their word.

But, this morning, a pall was thrown over last night’s festivities, for a body was discovered face down on the beach behind Sea Breeze. It was the Russian writer, Gregor Manov, another guest at the inn. His skull had been crushed with a large piece of driftwood. Judging from the footprints left in the sand, the deed had been perpetrated from behind while Manov was returning to the lodge from a late night walk.

The owner of Sea Breeze was a middle-aged woman of Ukrainian origin. The maid spoke little of her background, but appeared by manner and breeding to be an American. These seven were declared to be the prime suspects. Only through careful questioning and precise logic would motive and murderer emerge.

One of these suspects is a murderer . . .

Marta Rinebergs
The resort owner. She returned from Europe to run Sea Breeze after the death of her father. Her activities while overseas have never been fully revealed.

Grace Medford
The maid at Sea Breeze. She was recently hired by Marta Rinebergs as a domestic. She lives in a small house that is remote from the main building.

Andris Varga
A mysterious guest who claims Polish ancestry. He keeps to himself and associates very little with the other guests.

Woody Hartland
A captain in the United States Army. He was an aviator in the World War and is at Sea Breeze to be reunited with his comrades.

Colonel Sir Reginald Price Carlisle
A British intelligence officer. He is currently stationed in Alabama on “special assignment.” He arranged the reunion.

Henri van Ghant
A Belgian businessman. He was an officer during the War and has since become wealthy through investments in various ventures.

Mimi LaFleur
A French woman who seemed to know the comrades. She speaks little of her background and profession. Her flamboyance seems out of place in the rustic surroundings.

A gathering occurred last night at Highview, the secluded Beverly Hills estate of movie star Maurice Mason and his wife, Dianna Darien – one that proved to be both intriguing and tragic. For, this morning, the body of Maurice’s twin brother, famed archaeologist Myron Mason, was founded draped across the thorn bushes that grow in profusion around the grounds.

10 years ago, Myron Mason found a tomb and robbed it of its treasures. An inscription on the wall of the crypt proclaimed that whoever desecrated the spot would be cursed. When the comet named after Hopkay reappeared in the heavens, the desecration would be revenged.

The motley group of attendees toasted the archaeologist as the comet entered the solar system. Was the curse a remnant of an ancient religion, or the uneducated ramblings of a primitive people? The answer would soon be apparent – and deadly obvious.

One of these suspects is a murderer . . .

Maurice Mason
Myron’s twin brother and an actor who made it big in small movies.

Dianna Darien
An actress and Maurice’s wife. Lately, she’s been studying the teachings of Hopkay.

Sister Natasia
Leader of the group known as The Followers of Hopkay. Little is known of her background.

Professor Willard Goodfellow
An astronomer and man of science. He was hired to provide the expert commentary on the return of the comet.

Cheryl Shay
Myron’s lab assistant. She worked closely with Myron to learn everything about life.

Ramon Hopkins
A mysterious man who took a special interest the teachings of Hopkay.

At the English country estate, Conifers, Sir Hugo Smythe Armbruster’s 70th party took place last night. Sir Hugo had been knighted after The Great War for his contributions to the war effort. His brilliant sense of both history and propriety established him as an able publisher whose newspaper, The Daily Truth, kept the citizenry informed of what was happening at the front.

The assembled guests celebrated the event in a most fitting way – with enough food and drink to choke the proverbial horse. But, it seems, the horse may have fought back. For, this morning, Sir Hugo was found dead in the stables near the main house. Although the death was at first viewed to be accidental, Scotland Yard took little time in declaring that, indeed, evidence pointed toward murder.

The old gentleman had been a cat fancier, priding himself in the rare breeds that freely roam the grounds of Conifers. It was said that he preferred cats to humans, pampering them with catty trinkets. He had even threatened to leave his vast fortune to The Royal Feline Society rather than have his millions squandered by “fools and scoundrels.” One could only imagine what surprises would unfold when the will is read.

Maude Adamly
An actress. She had been starring in the play, The Lady Likes To Live It Up, until her recent hiatus from the cast.

An artist. She was an uninvited guest who seemed out of place among the others.
