THE VIOLET ACCOUNT

A place at the coat check.

Chicago, February 1929. The bookkeeper of the Velvet Door walks out without his coat. By morning, he is in the river.

Nell Barlow inherits his violet ledger and a rule: Vera reads the account every Sunday. The truth will have to look like something else.

Read the diary, examine the documents, recover each key. Your account keeps your progress and timed hints. Use separate paper: the book is never cut, folded or written in.
