A reminder to everyone:

Follow along with MobileRead’s own Zelda_pinwheel, a Nancy Drew wannabe detective, as she digs up the clues (and the bodies!). Two chapters will be posted daily. If you vigilantly follow the story to the end, you’ll be able to identify the murderer. Get the murderer's name and mail it to us to fallcontest@mobileread.com by midnight, November 14. Make sure to also tell us your username!

Just post it here, make sure you title it with "Contest Entry" so no one else reads it

Okay!

The reasons are optional (actually purely for our entertainment - there have been prizes awarded for sheer creativity) - The murderer's name alone is all that is required. Errr...your name too.

No, you don't "have to". But, if you were around for the last contest you might know that is could be to your advantage.

Here's a standard explanation to add to your choice:

"Look at those beady eyes... set close together. That low brow. Definite criminal type!"

I wasn't thinking in that, but after reading your sentence I think you are right! I thought(?) it was only because I couldn't explain my conclusions (well, if there are any 'cause it's just a "feeling" (sorry for my english, I'm not used to write for a long time)

Send your solution to the mystery - and anything you feel comfortable sharing with us about your reasoning! Or not. Up to you!

There's something incredibly fishy about that last entry - why would Zelda, a vegetarian, worry about them saving her any meat?! Methinks Poohbear is trying to distract us!
