Shanties and Secrets

Case 20 · Medium

Choruses about whales, wives and the weather rang through the rafters of the Salty Dog Inn on sea-shanty night. Miss Northcott, a treasure hunter, had come to Gullhaven chasing rumors of a sunken ship full of gold, and told anyone who would listen. Biscuit joined in, loudly and off-key. Miss Northcott was found dead, with the kettle lying nearby. Whoever had the kettle did it.

Who killed Miss Northcott?
