The evidence table
Case files you can drink out of.
Eleven ounces, ceramic, printed edge to edge. The case mugs carry a real file from Unread: the subject, the date, and the line that started it. The rest of the file is redacted, which is the point.
The House Mug
The wordmark, the three dots, nothing else. For people who already know where they drink.
Unread
The app that started it. One unread message, permanently.
Second Wind
She texted "almost home" at 11:42 PM. She never arrived.
Locker 118
Her keys were still in the office door. The 6 a.m. rush found no one behind the desk.
Dead Air
Her show hit number one on Monday. By Friday night, she was the story.
Third Barrel
The barn lights were on. She walked toward them. Nobody saw her again.
The Closer
Three open mics. One killer closer. She never made it to the showcase.
Chapter Fourteen
She kept the one chapter she was paid to burn. Then she named her price.
Sole Credit
He signed his name to a play he did not write. The recorder was still running.
The Last Booking
He kept the honest books. His partner kept a different set for the buyer.
Printed and shipped from the USA, separately from the coffee, so a mug and a box arrive in two packages with their own tracking. Dishwasher and microwave safe. The people named on the case mugs are fictional, from Unread: Phone Detective. No real case is depicted.
