Seal Cove Boatyard

Every sailor knows a dozen knots. Someone tied up a loose end: a smuggler's go-between was found dead.

The victim: a smuggler's go-between. Took the last square, alone with the murderer.

Biscuit’s hints

How to play
  1. One person per row and one per column, the victim included.
  2. People stand only on open squares (the map key shows which). Anything else blocks the square.
  3. Every clue is true.
  4. The victim took the last square: the row and column left over.
  5. Exactly one suspect was in the victim’s room, and that suspect did it.
