We were being held against our will by someone who wanted in. With Hal Cappone's death and the disappearance of $40 million dollars there was a lot at stake, and one of the eight of us was the killer. We had until midnight to unmask the culprit.
The suspects:
Molly M Awbster: A flapper girl, she gets the money for her lavish spending by bootlegging moonshine in her Packard auto.
S Treighton Harrow: The District Attorney whose plans for 'justice' would place him at the head of Cappone's organization.
Ernie G Ambler: A millionaire gambler with a sizable wager that Cappone won't make it back to Chicago alive.
Silky M Adam: The owner of a exclusive private establishment for the most influential citizens of Chicago, Silky's history is full of 'disappearing' men.
Anna Maria Carlotta Sassine ("Torchy"): A popular blues singer at the most exclusive of clubs with the Tommy Gun as her weapon of choice.
Billy ("The Kid") Thrower: Star pitcher for the Chicago Sock Kings, his skill with a baseball translates well to pitching explosives through car windows.
Eddie "Socks" R. Gyle: Golfer by day, proprietor of an exclusive gaming establishment by night, his business is making deals of every type.
Malissa F. Orrhot ("Scoop"): A reporter for Chicago's leading paper, Scoop's relationship with Hal Cappone, while intially amiable, has turned cold.
After several hours of discussion, deviled eggs, pasta y fagioli, salad, Scallopini and breadsticks we had it all worked out. We knew who killed Hal Capone. Our hosts calmly served up Reese's Peanut Butter Pie as the accusations flew. Not a single person correctly identified Cappone's killer or found the $40 million dollars. Would you like to try your luck?
No guesses here, but you guys look great. It looked like fun, and I didn't know you are friends with Erin! We did our breAstfeeding project together in Jordan ! What a small world .
