Can You Solve the Underwood Cellars Cold Case?

Famed Napa Valley winemaker Cary Underwood disappeared decades ago, leaving investigators with more questions than answers.

Then an earthquake reveals a previously undiscovered cellar — and Cary's body.

What was once a missing-person case is now a murder investigation.

Your job is to reopen the case, examine the evidence and determine who had the motive, means and opportunity to murder Cary Underwood.

There are no actors and no complicated characters to play. Simply open the case file, spread out the evidence and start investigating.

What's Included?

Inside the Underwood Cellars Murder Mystery Case File you'll discover more than 50 pieces of evidence to examine, including:

• Victim and suspect photographs
• Crime scene photographs
• Newspaper articles and clippings
• Witness interviews and statements
• Police and investigation documents
• Maps and other case materials
• Additional evidence and clues
• Access to online hints and the solution

Every document could matter. Compare stories, spot inconsistencies, establish timelines and decide which clues actually lead to the killer.

How Do You Solve the Murder?

Like a real detective, you'll need to establish three things:

Motive — Who had a reason to want Cary Underwood dead?

Means — Who had the ability or access required to commit the crime?

Opportunity — Who had the chance to carry out the murder?

Piece the evidence together and determine which suspect satisfies all three.
