Clues & Culprits › Rogues’ Gallery › Lena
Lena
Has three degrees and a colour-coded diary.
Scholar — Knows a lot. Mentions it.
In their own words
“I made a spreadsheet of everyone here. For fun.”
“I'm ahead of schedule, actually.”
“Let me know if you need a summary.”
“I have written everyone's whereabouts in my notebook. Alphabetically.”— in Victorian London, 1888
Characters’ asides never contain clues. In a case, only their statements count as evidence.
Case record
Lena has stood in 28 lineups so far, as a teacher, a chemist, a trainer, a playwright, a air-traffic controller, a navigator and more. Whether they were guilty is something you’ll have to prove for yourself.

Track record
In the 27 cases old enough to have a published walkthrough, Lena turned out to be a criminal 10 times and innocent 17 times. Roughly what you would expect by chance: a past record is never evidence in Clues & Culprits. Today’s and yesterday’s cases are left out so nothing is spoiled.
