Murder at the Magnolia Avenue Block Party 

 Godley Grove was once a peaceful town. Recently, the town has been forced to deal with a rising crime wave. The police have been working diligently to keep peace in the streets, but the growing number of scandals among the citizens is proving to make it impossible to maintain law and order.

     Nevertheless, the town’s famous for its social scene. There’s a party lurking around every corner, and it’s time for the folks on Magnolia Avenue to host their yearly block party. Peyton Crownly, a local comic with many enemies, has decided to claim the honor as the host of this year’s block party. Peyton has planned a night of good food, fun games, and great spirits.   You get along with most of the guests on the invite list, but there are some you’d rather not be around.  Nevertheless, you’ve been invited to the party.  This is where your story begins.
