Product Overview

Detective for a Day: The Hollywood Murder puts players in the middle of a case involving a lead actor found dead on the set of the fictional film "Shadows of Deceit," the second death connected to the movie. Working through evidence like newspapers, witness statements, autopsy reports, phone records, maps, and photos, players also go online to check surveillance videos and websites for leads. Along the way, players team up with a detective partner to dig into suspicious clues and figure out whether the film is cursed or a killer is hiding among Hollywood's elite.
