Old Blood in the Mine

A prominent geologist was found dead at the bottom of a disused mine shaft in Bergslagen in 1992. What was first written off as a fall accident turned out to be a cold-blooded murder. Can your team crack the mystery with the help of old maps and seismic surveys? On the night of 8 October 1992, geologist Erik Berg, 47, Nordmalm Mineral AB's man at the Silver Mine, left the mine last of all. Two days later he was found at the 62-metre level below mine shaft 4 with his geological hammer at his side and a skull injury that could not be explained by the fall. In the archive from Malmtorp lie seven people, an elevator log, a PLC control card and a mineral bid, and two of those who saw something that evening were deposed and died before the case was reopened. The witnesses contradict each other, a time shifts when the evening meal is corrected, and a line about the time clock stands in four acts without anyone paying it any heed.
