  In the turbulent aftermath of President John F. Kennedy's assassination on November 22, 1963, a maelstrom of theories and speculations emerged to unravel the enigma surrounding the tragic event. Amidst the cacophony of voices, Mark Lane emerged as a distinct figure, a staunch advocate for a meticulous investigation into the circumstances surrounding the murder and, more importantly, the accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. 
   
  Mark Lane, an attorney by profession, stepped into the spotlight with his fervent belief that the official narrative of Oswald acting alone in assassinating President Kennedy was not only flawed but perhaps deliberately misleading. Lane embarked on a relentless quest for truth, armed with skepticism and an unwavering commitment to uncovering the intricacies of the case. In his investigation, Lane meticulously dissected the evidence presented by the Warren Commission, the body tasked with examining the assassination. He scrutinized witness testimonies, ballistic reports, and the timeline of events leading up to that fateful day in Dallas. Lane's scrutiny revealed discrepancies and inconsistencies that fueled his suspicions and raised questions about the veracity of the official narrative. 
  One of Lane's primary contentions revolved around the "magic bullet" theory, a cornerstone of the Warren Commission's findings. He argued that the trajectory of the alleged single bullet, which purportedly caused multiple wounds to both President Kennedy and Texas Governor John Connally, was implausible. Lane's dissent echoed the sentiments of many skeptics who found it difficult to accept the official explanation of a lone gunman.

  "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" is one of the 56 short Sherlock Holmes stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It is the second of the twelve Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes in most British editions of the canon, and the second of the eight stories from His Last Bow in most American versions. The story was first published in The Strand Magazine in 1893.
  Miss Susan Cushing of Croydon receives a parcel in the post that contains two severed human ears packed in coarse salt. Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard suspects a prank by three medical students whom Miss Cushing was forced to evict because of their unruly behaviour. The parcel was sent from Belfast, the city of origin of one of the former boarders. Upon examining the parcel himself, Holmes is convinced that it is evidence of a serious crime. He reasons that a medical student with access to a dissection laboratory would likely use something other than plain salt to preserve human remains, and would be able to make a more precise cut than the roughly hacked ears suggest. The address on the package, roughly written and with a spelling correction, suggests to Holmes that the sender lacks education and is unfamiliar with Croydon. The knot in the string suggests to Holmes that they are looking for someone with sailing experience.

  Nine months ago, Sadie Greene shocked friends and family by ditching her sensible office job in the Chicago suburbs and buying a sight-unseen French bicycling tour company, Oui Cycle. Now she’s living the unconventional life of her dreams in the gorgeous village of Sans-Souci-sur-Mer.

Sadie is determined to show them the wonders of France and cycling—and to prove she made the right move. 
   
  She hopes her meticulously planned nine-day itinerary will win them over, with its stunning seascapes, delicious wine tastings, hilltop villages, and, of course, frequent stops for croissants.

  Someone went out of their way to bring a permanent end to Dom’s vacation.

However, mysteries mount with every turn.
