R450 p/pART. SCANDAL. SILENCE.
The most dangerous item in the art world just went up for auction.
THE STORY “We are having some technical difficulties…”
Sonya Terry, the provocative host of The Art of the Matter, promised her listeners a show they would never forget. She was hosting a live, on-air “Blind Auction” of rare items from the estate of a reclusive collector.
The centrepiece? A sketchbook belonging to Jean-Paul Dubois—the artist whose unsolved murder rocked the city earlier this season.
Rumours swirled that Dubois’ sketches contained more than just charcoal studies; they held secrets, accusations, and perhaps the key to a forgery ring. But as the bidding heated up, the microphone picked up a gasp, a scuffle, and then… dead air.
Sonya Terry has been silenced. Now, you must find out why.
THE EXPERIENCE: From Audience Member to Detective.
The doors are locked. The broadcast is cut. You were there as part of the live studio audience. You heard it happen. Now, over a 3-course dinner, your table must solve the crime.
The Evidence:
Analyse the audio recording of the broadcast, review Sonya’s show notes, and examine the pages of the lethal sketchbook.
The Connection:
While this is a complete, standalone mystery, astute detectives who attended The Lost Portrait may recognise names, motives, and Easter eggs that tie the crimes together.
The Goal:
Solve the murder of Sonya Terry before the station goes off the air for good.
DRESS CODE
Studio Chic. You might be on camera (or at least, in the police report).
“The killer is still in the studio. Can you find them?”
