    These three items are connected to the killer’s motive and the deeper story behind Odessa’s murder.

    Each has its own section with optional hints and a quiz.


    If you’re feeling confident, try the quiz. If you're not sure why an item matters, click through its hints — they’ll point you in the right direction.

    Item 1: Necklace

    Item 2: Business Card

    Item 3: Will

  • Necklace Quiz

  • Necklace Hints

    Hint 1 — Necklace

    The necklace was found in the black scrunchie — who does this scrunchie belong to?

    If you're not sure, examine the other item found in the scrunchie: a ring. Who does it belong to?

    Hint 2 — Necklace

    If you're not sure who the ring belongs to, read the Employee Disciplinary Report.

    Hint 3 — Necklace

    The ring belongs to Priya Reed. The Employee Disciplinary Report says Ella stole a heart shaped ring from Priya and didn't return it. The ring in the scrunchie is heart shaped.

    Revisit Odessa's practice notes.

    Hint 4 — Necklace

    Odessa's practice notes reveal that she believes her necklace was stolen. Ella stole Priya's ring, and Ella has an issue with stealing, generally (see the "Shoplifter Wall of Shame" photo). Also, Ella doesn't like Odessa (see the notes she exchanged with Leonie). We can infer that Ella stole Odessa's necklace — like she stole Priya's ring — and has been keeping it in her scrunchie.

    The necklace is Odessa's.

    Examine the Nuvo business card carefully. If you're not sure why it's relevant, read through its hints next.

  • Business Card Quiz

  • Business Card Hints

    Hint 1 — Business Card

    Do you know who the necklace belongs to? If not, go through the necklace hints first, then return here.

    Hint 2 — Business Card

    Explore the website on the Nuvo business card.

    Hint 3 — Business Card

    Go to the "About Us" page on the website. Does anything look familiar?

    Hint 4 — Business Card

    The "About Us" page shows a picture of Clarisse Voss wearing the same necklace Odessa has.

    The "About Us" page states Clarisse passed away in childbirth on November 2nd, 1996, and left behind one child. Does this date sound familiar?

    Hint 5 — Business Card

    Read the Autopsy Report and En Pointe Brochure carefully. Also, notice that Clarisse Voss was working in Seattle when she passed away.

    Hint 6 — Business Card

    Odessa was born on November 2nd, 1996, in Seattle (see the Autopsy Report and En Pointe Brochure).

    Clarisse passed away in childbirth on November 2nd, 1996, leaving behind her one newborn child. She likely died in Seattle.

    Odessa has Clarisse's necklace.

    Clarisse Voss is Odessa's biological mother.

  • Will Quiz

  • Will Hints

    These three items are linked to the killer’s motive and the deeper story behind Odessa’s murder.

    Carefully consider how each one fits into the case.

    Item 1: Preston Voss' Will

    Item 2: The Necklace

    Item 3: The Nuvo Business Card

    If you're not sure why a piece of evidence matters, click through its hints — they'll guide you in the right direction without giving away the answer.

    Hint 1 — Preston's Will

    If you're not sure why the necklace and the Nuvo business card are significant, explore those items first, then come back here.

    Hint 2 — Preston's Will

    The Nuvo website says Clarisse Voss died in childbirth on November 2nd, 1996 and left behind a newborn infant and husband. Clarisse likely passed away in Seattle, where Nuvo is located.

    Odessa has Clarisse's necklace.

    Read the Autopsy Report and the En Pointe Brochure.

    Hint 3 — Preston's Will

    Odessa was born on November 2nd, 1996, in Seattle. Similarly, Clarisse Voss passed away in childbirth on November 2nd, 1996, in Seattle, and Odessa has Clarisse's necklace. Clarisse Voss is Odessa's biological mother.

    What happened to Odessa after Clarisse passed away?

    Read Jonas' blog post (on the website www.odessaisperfect.com) titled "You Deserve to Know the Truth".

    Hint 4 — Preston's Will

    Jonas' blog post has a picture of a closed adoption record that matches Odessa (same birthday, born in the same place, and adopted by a family in Toronto — where Odessa lives now). Jonas' blog posts and letter show he think this adoption record reflects a big secret that's been kept from Odessa — Odessa was adopted.

    Preston's will mentions his late wife, Clarisse Voss, and their "surviving biological child". Since Clarisse only had one child, this child must be Odessa. This makes Preston Odessa's biological father.

    Maya is Preston Voss' daughter, and Maya has a half-sibling (see the "HerediTrace" results). Who's Maya's half-sibling?

    Hint 5 — Preston's Will

    Preston's will mentions his late wife, Clarisse Voss, and their "surviving biological child". Since Clarisse only had one child, this child must be Odessa. This makes Preston Odessa's biological father.

    Maya is Preston Voss' daughter, and Maya has a half-sibling (see the "HerediTrace" results). Who's Maya's half-sibling?

    Hint 5 — Preston's Will

    Preston is Odessa's biological father, and Clarisse is Odessa's biological mother. Clarisse only had one child (Odessa). Preston is also Maya's biological father, which makes Odessa and Maya half-siblings.

    Read Preston's will carefully — what did he leave for Odessa (the "surviving biological child" of his union with Clarisse) and what did he leave for Maya?
