Mask City- Chapter Zero

A masked vigilante is hunting a killer, and this small town has bigger secrets than it lets on. Written by bestselling author Aaron Crash, it plays the superhero-detective angle with a wink rather than grim seriousness.

The murders are the hook, but the job is talking to people: witnesses who know more than they say, allies who might not be, suspects who'd rather fight than answer questions. You work the case scene by scene, piecing together who's behind the killings while the town's underbelly keeps surfacing between interrogations.

It's a visual novel first, so most of the work is reading, choosing who to trust, and occasionally throwing a punch when talk runs out. Chapter Zero sets the stage rather than closing the case, so treat this as the opening file, not the whole investigation.
