Twelve degrees below. One stolen samovar. Five things nobody else thought to look at.
←→ walk · E look closer · N notebook
Countess Volkova keeps a samovar of pressed Baltic amber that has boiled water for four generations of her family. At twenty minutes to midnight it was on its table on Ordynka Street. At midnight it was not.
No forced door. No footprints at the gate. The city police walked the street twice, found snow, and went home to bed.
You are going to walk it a third time.
Five things on this street are worth a second look. Find all five, then name the thief at the tram depot at the end of the road.
Three people could have carried the samovar off Ordynka Street tonight. Your notebook rules out two of them.
