Our take on Malleus Cocconum: The Heiress
The protagonist is not a conventional investigator. School responsibilities, family tensions, inheritance, forbidden relationships, and supernatural consequences take the place of a standard crime-solving structure, while conspiracies and crimes remain part of the surrounding mystery.
