The Perfect Alibi | A Belgian Detective Mystery
Description
At Marleigh Halt, beneath a stern station clock, three respectable witnesses swear they saw Leonard Vane at exactly 3:15 PM—while a man lies dead in a locked office miles away in Bloomsbury. The police call it impossible, the witnesses call it perfect, and the Belgian Detective calls it arranged, because flawless alibis are rarely accidents. As timetables, testimony, and certainty are examined minute by minute, the case reveals how a crime can be committed without the killer ever entering the room—only by understanding what people will swear to when the clock gives them permission. The Perfect Alibi is an original Golden Age–style mystery of precision, persuasion, and murder by design, presented as a full-length audiobook by Nocturnal Tales.
This is an original mystery inspired by the traditions of classic detective fiction.
All characters and events are fictional. No affiliation or endorsement is implied.
If three honest people agree on the same minute, would you trust the witnesses—or the mind that made them certain?
