Case File
The missing bookmark
At 8:10 a.m., the bookshop owner unlocked the reading room and found the shop’s brass cat bookmark missing from the first edition display. Three people had been inside after closing: Nora the event host, Eli the cleaner, and June the bookseller. Nora said she left before the rain started. Eli said he never went near the display. June said she spent the evening labeling new arrivals in the back room. The clue: the display case lid was dotted with tiny raindrops, but the room windows were shut all night.
