Adventure game based on the real-life murder of a young woman in LA in the 1940s. The case was particularly famous and grisly because the body had been cut in half.

The puzzles vary in quality. The game employs a simple point-and-click interface. The graphics and cutscenes are good. Notably, Dennis Hopper appears as a minor character.
