Murder Mystery 3

Murder Mystery 3

• Jewels or Jail?

2

• The thief looked down at the large box of
  glistening jewels sitting on the table and felt
  the smooth hard surfaces of the gems.

3
It was a mere two weeks since they had been
removed from the safe of Sparkly Gems the
Jeweller.
4
It was a shame the night watchman had stumbled on
the crime and had to be shot.
5

• Sparkly Gems had just received a valuable
  delivery of diamonds, rubies and sapphires from
  Holland.

6

• It was obvious to the police and the owner that
  this was an inside job and they had narrowed it
  down to 32 employees who knew which safe the
  diamonds were in.

7

• The investigation was led by Inspector Pymworthy
  who as yet had no leads to follow. Forensic tests
  had not produced any fingerprints or DNA and the
  gun was nowhere to be found. The trail was going
  cold.

8

• The thief stared at the airline ticket a
  single flight to Cambodia leaving in two days
  the start of a new life.

9

• Inspector Pymworthy (or should it be Dimworthy?)
  had no chance. He wouldnt recognise a thief
  with a bag of swag on his back.

10

• Being supremely confident and a touch arrogant,
  the thief decided to send the Inspector some
  clues.
• The next day the Inspector received 5 emails from
  someone at Sparkly Gems claiming they had clues
  about the theft.

11

• The emails did not appear to make sense and the
  Inspector was mystified. He didnt realise that
  he had only two days before the thief and the
  booty would fly away to start a new life overseas.

12

• Can you help the Inspector to nail the thief in
  time?
• Will the thief get away?
• Or will justice be done?
• For clues 2, 3 5 1 a, b 2 etc
