July 4 — Nørrebrogade on fire

July 4 – Nørrebrogade on fire – the murder of Eva Larsen

The year is 1944 and the People’s Strike is at its peak.

For several days, large parts of Copenhagen’s workers have refused to show up for work.

At the urging of the Danish Resistance and the Freedom Council, the uprising has quickly spread across the country and has so far claimed the lives of up to 100 people.

Most of the deaths are related to the strike itself and the many demonstrations. But under the cover of the unrest, there are both stabbings and, in retaliation, several so-called clearing murders on the open street.

Assemble a team of people you trust for this mission and find Eva’s killer.

In the midst of the fighting around Nørrebrogade, one murder stands out. The person killed has no direct connection to the resistance movement, is not known to the public and was also near his home.

The Danish police are working under very difficult conditions and are struggling to prevent the violence from escalating further. However, in the chaos of Copenhagen, the police chose to attribute the killing to escalating tensions at the demonstrations.

The murder victim was 26-year-old Eva Larsen, who was found shot three times in the head and chest.

Her husband, 32-year-old Casper Larsen, has told police that he found his wife killed when he was on his way home from the local speakeasy around 11pm, despite a curfew. Eva was still warm, and the blood had not yet clotted, so the killing must have happened just before.

A close family member of Eva Larsen has asked your resistance group DAMO, DAnsk MOdstand, short for Danish Resistance, for help in finding the killer. DAMO management has authorized a private investigation into the murder.

Your task is therefore to try to solve the murder of Eva Larsen. You will be assisted by Officer Jensen, who is a member of DAMO and has access to the police files. But it is of course crucial that his involvement in DAMO is kept secret.

Is it a clearing murder, predatory murder or are there other circumstances behind the killing?
