Here’s a look at the clues we received in this month’s box…….
UV Light with Note
Humm… I feel like the UV light might reveal something un-seen.. Perhaps like a black light effect?
Music Sheet
Uh-oh.. I hope I don’t have to know how to play the piano with this one. Will you be ahead of the curve if you know how? Curious to know your findings.
Colouring Sheet with Red Marker
I wonder why you have to colour the sheet with multiple colours but have only been given one colour? Did you receive a different colour?
Playing Cards
Hummm… No real clue with these ones. I wonder if they are used as some sort of decoder?
Ledger Page with Invoiec
Curious too! Looks like this could be a trace left to follow…
Police Reports
These are super interesting! A missing persons report right from the police themselves.
Medical Reports
This piece of information is really fuelling my curiously!
Movie Ticket
Another piece of information leaving a trail of time and place of whereabouts!
Boomerang Card
Ok, this one has me completely stumped!
Letter
Love evidence like this… This is when it starts getting really personal.
Diary Pages
More personal details. I feel some real answers are to be found here.
Dispatch by Breakout January 2018 – Final Thoughts
Sarah mentioned in her last post it might bet better if Sarah reviewed one whole batch of mystery and I another. This way we wouldn’t be too confused with all the clues. Even though I feel a little out of the loop with this box I’m still so curious about it and can’t help trying to solve the mystery with only the clues I have! Have you been receiving this box since the beginning of this mystery? Have you ideas on who-done it?
