Stolen Smuggler’s Stash

A treasure suspected to be smuggled aboard a ship disappears, and it’s up to the detective to find it.

The story will unravel the mystery of where the stolen item came from, why it was stolen from the smuggler, and the identity of the thief. This prompt allows the writer to delve into themes of grey morality–after all, the initial owner of the loot was also a criminal – and adds layers of complexity to the detective’s mission.
