It's sort of Shakespeare-meets-CSI, although the better analogy might well be to the Thurber classic, "The Macbeth Murder Mystery:"
"And do you know what I'm going to do now?"
"No," she said. "What?"
"Buy a copy of 'Hamlet,'" I said, "and solve that!"
My companion's eye brightened. "Then," she said, "you don't think Hamlet did it?"
"I am," I said, "absolutely positive he didn't."
"But who," she demanded, "do you suspect?" I looked at her cryptically.
"Everybody," I said, and disappeared into a small grove of trees as silently as I had come.
