The making off of this shot was really funny. We were in a hotel that was like a cottage, and that lamp really made me think of the challenge sin the very beginning I saw it.
Tried to remind a scene of the clasical crime & mistery literature, Agatha Christie, Sherlock... or its succesor Mrs. Jessica Fletcher, hence the title.
I suppose it will not work very well, because people will be expecting some other things, but I like it.

This is nice but the majority of the voters are expecting mystery as in magic rather than human intrigue. Regardless, you get a 6 for the good effort.

Very Creepy, I like it...so we can deduce that the killer is a noun, and that noun does not start with "A" "E" "I" "O" or "U".

Nice idea. I like how you placed the note - not too perfectly, but clearly in the light so we can read it. I might've cropped it tigher at the top - that black space doesn't add anything for me. But the hand is terrific. 6.

Wonderful photo - it sets a moood, tells a story AND leaves me wondering (like about the scarf.... hmmm....). Nice colors and composition, too.

Nice entry and concept. Like your creative streak. Think the top black part could be cropped out though to achieve a better effect.
