THE BLENHEIM BLACKWOOD MYSTERY
YOUR MYSTERY TRAIL QUEST
Blenheim, 1931.
Rain falls across Seymour Square as the town wakes to shocking news—prominent businessman Walter Blackwood has turned up dead near the gardens under mysterious circumstances.
At first glance, police believe it was a robbery gone wrong. But veteran detective Arthur Reeves sees something others don’t…
Nothing was stolen.
No witnesses came forward.
And someone deliberately removed pages from Blackwood’s pocket diary before police arrived.
Blackwood had enemies throughout Blenheim. Rumours swirled around secret gambling debts, hidden business dealings, and whispered meetings held after dark around the streets surrounding Seymour Square.
Now Detective Reeves needs your help.
The official investigation has stalled, witnesses refuse to speak openly, and the killer still walks free somewhere in town. Reeves believes Blackwood left behind a hidden trail of clues before his death—small details scattered through the square and nearby streets that point to the truth.
