Suspect gives the old country-house mystery an excellent complication: you are not the detective. You are the reporter who came to Ashcroft Farm’s Halloween costume ball hoping for a story and ended up wearing a cowboy outfit whose lariat and bullet make a very persuasive case against you. When your friend Veronica Ashcroft-Wellman is murdered, the champagne, masks, and polite society harden into a trap. Dave Lebling lets the party proceed around you—guests keep appointments, have private meetings, disappear upstairs, and notice what you are doing—while you scramble to find the evidence nobody wants you to have. It is an investigation powered by social panic rather than professional authority. Every question risks making you look guiltier; every minute brings the police closer. In Suspect, innocence is not a condition. It is something you must construct, clue by clue, before the night runs out.

THE ARCHIVE DRAWER

The world beyond the box.

Open archival scans Feelies

Front and back photographs document Michael’s sealed Apple II copy—including its original retail label, shrink-wrap texture, and the package photograph on the reverse. Historical materials remain with the preservation projects that made them available.
