Listen to SEASON 1 of MURDER IN MIRABAR!

---

 https://www.buzzsprout.com/719124/2659201 The four dwarf comrades of Lastgate Investigations comb the dwarven mining city of Mirabar to attempt to find the real murderer of old Rosehandle as his son awaits trial for his life. They've survived the first attempt on their lives, but are about to meet a deadly new enemy. "Murder In Mirabar"

 https://www.buzzsprout.com/719124/2711806-murder-in-mirabar-chapt-2-3  Lastgate Investigations has entered the deserted Rosehandle Mansion outside the city. What dangers await them inside? What clues? Time keeps ticking away as Septimus Rosehandle sits in a cell, awaiting trial for a murder he didn't commit. Or did he?  Who is actually guilty of "Murder In Mirabar"? 

https://www.buzzsprout.com/719124/2780593-murder-in-mirabar-chapter-3  Lastgate is unconcious, Jamez and Murdermead are down to their last few hit points, and Rosehandle Manor still has yet to give up any clues of substance in the murder of its former master. New forces in Mirabar are soon to enter the web, but are they friend, or foe? The deeper the dwarf investigators go into this tangle, the more confusing, and more dangerous, it becomes. And time continues to slip away for the young suspect. . . . 

 https://www.buzzsprout.com/719124/2833021-murder-in-mirabar-chapter-4  After leaving the chambers of Mirabar's imposing Mayor Greybeard, Murdermead, Moradin, and Jamez are still burdened with an unconscious Lastgate. Clearly they need more than simple healing for their detective leader. A visit to the local temple is in order. Then they must attempt to find further allies as they prepare to sneak out of the dwarven city and into the Rosehandle Mines at the base of the nearby mountains to find further clues. But with a growing list of enemies (and the corpses in their wake starting to pile up) who CAN they truly trust?

The four dwarven comrades of Lastgate Investigations have made a plan, but now they must put it into action. They know they are being watched inside Mirabar by multiple forces, both lawful and not. Now they'll need to lose the tails, slip into a mining caravan, get out of the city, and delve deeply into the Rosehandle Mines for more clues in the murder of Broadbase Rosehandle. But even if they can, what awaits them "down the hole"? It's chapter 5 of "Murder In Mirabar"! Live from onstage at The Bard's Bounty Cafe every Sunday, from 6-8PM in Shelton, WA.

They'll need it, for the more they find out about the murder of Broadbase Rosehandle the deeper they delve into the power players of the city, those in the light. . . .and those in the shadows. Young Septimus' trial grows ever closer. Can they get the evidence needed to clear him of his father's death? It's beginning to look like finding the real killer is the only way.

Will the Temple of Moradin yield any? Or perhaps questioning the head of the Miner's Guild? They may find foes where they hoped for friends, and fisticuffs where they sought clues.
