Oh my! Have I confused everybody? I tried to create a very simple mystery - so that everyone could win a prize! I mean ... there's only one person left alive in the house, right?

Would an author lie to you?

i fully admit, i've read only a handful of mysteries in my life, despite living part of each year in a city where they film a mystery series ...

so i might be too easily confused.

but ... there's one character alive in the house. and five others still alive. so i'm assuming (hoping?) more people get killed off.

Never! Who would be so dastardly to even think of killing me!?

How can you speak of presents? Moderators are being savagely removed from existence! By "you know who" ....

Hmmmm ..... I'm starting to think about ....

Well, I'd love to think of getting one of those lovely prizes, but it seems like I am too busy trying to stay alive!

well ... no. but you look too good to have been microwaved ... so evenly crispy ...
It was a combo-microwave oven: microwave, fan oven and grill. Ideal for quickly cooking anything perfectly. I think Dylrob recommended the model.

Hmmm. Dreams seems to have gotten the point at last. It seems clear that someone who was believed dead isn't.

Which is why I asked yesterday about the certainty of identification.

Just to go back to the corpus delicious for a while - I know that corpus delicti is not an actual corpse, but wouldn't the actual corpse and corpus delicti be the same in this case? I mean, how can you prove (beyond all reasonable doubt) that pooh is dead without his body?

ravenne hasn't been killed yet and she was in the house during the murders...except for the last in which she says she went shopping...but did she really?

Sorry pooh...I also am not totally convinced that the chicken in the microwave/oven was actually you.

And what about Alex and Jellby? Jellby seems very intent on getting rid of all "evidence" and classifying everything as an accident.

Could there be multiple killers?

Lots of questions need answering.
