Episode Details

At a glittering country house gathering, a famous diamond vanishes in full view of respectable guests, servants, and locked routines, and the Belgian Detective must untangle a chain of witness statements shaped by pride, fear, vanity, and selective memory until a seemingly impossible theft becomes a precise human design; inspired by historical crime fiction of its era while remaining entirely fictional, The Castlecourt Diamond Affair is an original Golden Age–style mystery of perception, class performance, and the danger of trusting what appears obvious.
