Mystery Introduction:

A storm has been blasting the northeast coast for days. The ship lost course, and was unable to stop, or steer clear because of the surf. It smashed into the rocks. Everyone aboard made it ashore safely, and took refuge in a Lighthouse. Attempting to wait the storm out proved fatal, the next morning the cook was found dead in the kitchen with his own knife stuck in his back. No doubt he was murdered, but who could have done it?
