Investigative Obsession

Create a story where a private investigator becomes personally obsessed with a case they have been hired for.

In this prompt, one can draw the thin line disregarding the professional limits and diving into personal obsessions. Explore the reasons behind this obsession – is it the case or the belief of justice? Perhaps a personal identification with the victim? The protagonist’s life should spiral around this case, affecting their relationships and mental health. The denouement could chart the consequences, or the lengths they go to solve the case.
