THE PALE BLUE EYE (2022)

[scaryfangirl2001]

Annabon, the clever detective, stands in the center of the circle. The game is afoot, and the seven-year-old's eyes narrow with determination. The other kids, her classmates, form a ring around her, their faces a mix of excitement and nervousness. Annabon knows that one among them is the 'serial killer', ready to strike at any moment. She spins slowly, her long brown hair swirling around her, and surveys the group with an intensity beyond her years.

"I'm watching you all," she declares, her voice high-pitched but commanding. "The killer will not escape my notice. I, Detective Annabon, will catch you before you can harm another soul!" Her small hands ball into fists, and she points at each child in turn, her gaze lingering on each face.

There is Antonio, her best friend, standing tall and brave like his policeman dad. Annabon knows he'd be ready to help her, but could he be the killer? No, she trusts him. Then there is Alice, her eyes sparkling with innocence as she twirls an imaginary butterfly net. Annabon giggles to herself, thinking of Alice's love for butterflies, but quickly refocuses. Even the most innocent could be deceiving.

The rowdy twins, Althea and Attica, stand side by side, their mischievous grins mirroring each other. Annabon scowls at them; they are always up to no good. Could one of them be the killer? She makes a mental note to keep a close eye on their every move. Whitney, the wild child, bounces on her toes, her energy seemingly boundless. Annabon wonders if her restlessness might lead to something more sinister.

Miles, with his earbuds in, seems lost in his own world of music. Annabon wonders if he'd even notice the game, let alone be the killer. But she knows better than to underestimate anyone. Simon, the lawyer's son, stands with his hands folded, a calculating look in his eyes. Annabon feels a shiver run down her spine; she has a hunch Simon might be one to watch.

Ray, the little hypochondriac, fidgets, her eyes darting around as if expecting the killer to strike at any moment. Annabon feels a twinge of sympathy for her but reminds herself that even the most nervous among them could be the culprit. Donna, the tough tomboy, stands with her arms crossed, a defiant look on her face. Annabon knows better than to get too close; she's seen Donna punch kids for less.

Jimmy, the football enthusiast, is bouncing a ball on his foot, seemingly oblivious to the tension. And finally, there is Trees, the new girl, her intelligent eyes taking in the scene with quiet curiosity. Annabon feels a connection with Trees, another outsider, but she knows looks can be deceiving.

As the game begins, Annabon's heart races. She spins again, her hair flying, and suddenly, a scream pierces the air! It is Alice! She lies on the ground, her butterfly net forgotten. Annabon's eyes dart around, her mind racing. Who could have done this?

"I accuse... Althea!" Annabon points at the twin, her heart pounding. The circle holds its breath. Althea smirks, revealing a gap-toothed grin.

"Wrong, Detective," she taunts. Annabon's heart sinks. She had failed, and now another life is at stake. The game continues, and Annabon's mind whirls with possibilities. She has two more chances to catch the killer, and she is determined to succeed. The lives of her classmates, her friends, depend on it.

As the game reaches its climax, Annabon's intuition guides her. She spins one last time, her eyes landing on a figure she had almost overlooked. "I accuse... Miles!" she shouts, her voice steady. The circle holds its breath again.

Miles, startled, removes one of his earbuds. "What? Me?" he asks, his voice cracking. Annabon's heart races as she waits for the response. Is her hunch correct?

The game master nods, and Annabon lets out a sigh of relief. She has caught the killer! Miles, the quiet one, has been silencing his victims with his music, hiding his dark deeds behind an innocent facade. Annabon beams, proud of her deduction skills. She has saved the day, and her classmates cheer for their brave detective.

"Case closed," Annabon declares, her small chest puffed out with pride. "The killer is behind bars, and justice has been served!"

WHAT’S IT ABOUT

Thirteen witches. Two ordinary sisters. One locked-room murder. This whodunit is giving Knives Out meets The Inheritance Games with magic. 

An eccentric old woman approaches sisters Ruby and Wren with an offer too good to pass up: attend a fancy dinner party posing as her granddaughters for two grand each. Sounds like a great arrangement—what could possibly go wrong? Literally EVERYTHING! 

Shortly after arriving at the mysterious Hegemony Manor, the hostess is dead and a killer lies among the dinner guests. Did we mention the guests are all powerful witches? Ruby and Wren must solve the murder if they hope to make it out of the manor alive.
