Clara skipped through the kitchen, her heart overflowing with a giddy sort of excitement. The first box had been unpacked, and she was finally going to hang her favorite painting. She hummed happily as she unpacked the tools she needed. She loved the space of her new home. It was like a giant hug.

The sunlight streamed through the window as she began to unpack the rest of the boxes. She turned, suddenly, at the sound of a voice. "Miss, can we talk?" A detective stood at her doorstep, his expression serious. "We believe a crime happened here."
