Description
It's 1948 and you can't help but feel there's more to life than waking up next to an empty bottle. You were close to something good - real close - but she walked out, and you're pretty sure she ain't coming back. The last thing you want to do is attend to the body of a middle-aged man found dead on Somerton beach, but when you do, there's a whole lot about the case that don't seem to add up. This is finally a chance for you - tough-talking Italian-American detective, Leonardo Moretti - to make a difference. Navigate your way through the weird and wonderful characters of New Jersey. Use your suspicious mind to solve puzzles and your razor-sharp tongue to weed out clues. Solve one of the greatest mysteries of all time. Who killed the Somerton Man? You decide.
