The End?

This is a classic "Who done it" with a twist using modern evidence gathering, when the guilty want to remain innocent and the innocent don't know why they're guilty. Can you solve the mystery of what crime? You have until Christmas morning before I reveal the answer in the comments. Good Luck.

Nice try but not the answer

This time of year since all houses look "aflame" the dalmation should be celebrated... which one is on fire? Ask the dog.

While I have no clue as to the answer, I'm quite intrigued.

When crime and intrigue get together, you know it's a thriller.

Such things typically aren't my forte but when inspiration hits?

The writer must get off the block and open the door showing others... when it comes to writing I suppose people need to ask Authors even though it may sound like a joke; "The power of what compels you?"

When I write? It's Roy Orbison... I had several chapters going for NAtional November a few years back backed up and everything me and ol Roy. Then computer and backup both got corrupted and totally lost among many other things I can't remember on them. It took awhile to mourn it or have the urge to return... but it has.

Well here's to waiting with Bells on not having a guess.

The only thing I've been boxing is a lawn mower; need to mulch in the leaves.

CONGRATS

That is unless you saw your mommy kissing "Santa Claus" that's like a fifty year curse... stuck as one of the Krampus children no matter how good you've been while a naughty doppelganger(changeling) takes your place.

Look I didn't make the rules; I'm just sayn' and it's been that way since the Victorian era fr all the Cornish/English children celebrating the German Saint Nicholas.
