On the night of April 6th, 1830, in the quiet town of Salem, Massachusetts which was no stranger to darkness, the wealthy and well respected merchant Captain Joseph White was murdered in his bed. He was 82 years old. And the giant chest full of gold doubloons next to his bed remained untouched. Who could have done this and, if not robbery gone wrong, what could have been the reasoning? Was it someone seeking revenge due to the Captain's terrible past? A set up all for money in the end? A jealous former lover? Or... did someone kill him just for fun?...
