Forget the Golden Witch

A very different version of Rokkenjima. A set of murders, each one more baffling than the last, waiting for a reader willing to solve them. The rules are explicit: certain statements in the story appear in purple text. When an innocent character speaks in purple, the statement is true. When the culprit speaks in purple, it does not have to be. There is no magic in this version of the story. No golden butterflies. No witch to track down. There are only people, and the monsters that have learned to wear the faces of people, and a series of crimes that only careful reading can resolve.
