The Locked Lighthouse

A remote coastal lighthouse on the Scottish coast, 1952

Lighthouse keeper Angus Drummond has been found dead at the base of the lighthouse stairs, and foul play is suspected. A colleague discovered the body on the morning of June 30th, but the precise sequence of events the night before remains unclear. You have been handed six witness statements and forensic observations recorded in jumbled order. Your task is to arrange them into the single correct chronological sequence to determine exactly how the night unfolded.

The rules

  1. Six events make up the chronology. They are presented jumbled.
  2. Four forensic clues constrain when each event must fall.
  3. Click each event in the order you believe it happened. Click a placed event to send it back to the pool.
  4. One submission. You can’t change your timeline.

File your reconstruction before the next case drops.
