New England, 1834: Mr. Higginbotham was murdered last night in Kimballton. Or was it the night before last? Two travelers on the road tell our protagonist, Dominicus Pike, differing stories of Mr. Higginbotham’s murder. But everyone else Dominicus meets on his journey to Kimballton says they’ve seen Old Man Higginbotham alive today. Can you solve the mystery before the end of this horror-comedy?
