Finally solved “Murder at Old Fields” – here are the answers (spoilers, obviously)
After way too much time staring at clues and second-guessing every suspect, I’ve got the full breakdown for Murder at Old Fields .
Cast-iron fireplace poker. You’ll find blood traces on it after using the luminol spray from the lab.
🔍 Elijah Croft (found in the old barn) 🔪 The murder weapon: A cast-iron fireplace poker (hidden behind the hay bales) 🕵️ The killer: Margot Haines (the groundskeeper’s daughter) 💡 Key clue: The torn diary page under the loose floorboard in the study – it mentions a secret meeting at “the old well,” which only Margot knew about.
Here’s a post you can use for social media, a forum, or a blog—tailored to a few different tones depending on where you’re posting.
Let me know if I missed any of the side-quest clues. Happy to help anyone still stuck on the well puzzle!
Elijah was blackmailing her over a past theft at the manor.
Margot Haines. She confesses if you present the diary page + the cellar will.
