about 1 h 45 min · 1–4 players

Vrångö and Fotö in the Gothenburg archipelago, 1823. A Danish ship is found stranded and plundered with its entire crew murdered, and the trail leads to a poor saltery widow on Vrångö and four men close to her. The plan is said to have been made in her cottage. But the one pointed out as the mastermind behind it all denies everything, and the court has only the words of those who have already confessed. A real case from Swedish legal history: the real investigation, the real interrogations and the real verdict. Everyone involved has been dead for nearly two hundred years, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources are included with the case.
