Scotland Yard arrested Jem Pruitt, the forger, in the stalls at the first interval and locked him in a cloakroom. By the second he was gone, and the only person seen leaving the building was a soprano from the Act III chorus — who was not in the Act III chorus.

Victorian London: case 23

This Hard case seats 20 suspects on a 4×5 grid. 16 of them carry a clue; the other 4 only have something to say about themselves. 4 of the steps can only be proven by reading two or more clues together. Case 23 of the free Victorian London case pack. Same rules as every Clues & Culprits case: everyone tells the truth, and only proven verdicts stick.
