Guests Synopsis:
This 4th of July murder mystery takes place in Elmtown, a
community of 12,000 people noted for its annual Independence Day parade. Mayor
Joe Possumz, who's just announced that he'll be running for his fourth term in
the fall elections, is in the reviewing stand, waving at the parade while
wearing his now-famous, red-white-and-blue bowtie.
As the final drum-and-bugle corps passes by, the mayor bites into a hot dog
coated with traditional brown mustard and topped off with a dark-green dill
pickle. When he finishes the culinary treat, Possumz wipes the perspiration off
his brow, smiles faintly at the crowd and collapses. To the amazement of those
nearby, the local doctor rushes to him, checks for a pulse, and pronounces him
dead.
More about the Elmtown parade:
Twelve years ago, when Mayor Possumz was first elected to office, the Elmtown
parade was a ten-minute affair, consisting of four units and a lot of fire
trucks. With the mayor's backing, the parade has become a holiday extravaganza.
The 80-plus units in the parade now take two hours to pass by the official civic
reviewing stand, strategically positioned in front of City Hall where the mayor
gazes with pride at the event that he has built and nurtured.
But, any politician is only as secure as his last controversial decision ... and
the mayor has made many enemies over the years. Could one of them have done him
in as he was enjoying the latest version of his most noteworthy accomplishment?
