The Claret Pals

Description

The Claret Pals are just an ordinary group of Burnley FC supporters who meet up at a pub before every away fixture to eat, drink and sing raucous football songs. However, a series of sickeningly gruesome murders begins occurring close to the pubs they’re meeting in, and the killer is leaving clues seemingly trying to frame the group.

With the evidence piling up, the police begin looking closely at The Claret Pals, assuming that the killer must be one of them. Members of the group decide to take matters into their own hands. With time running out, they desperately begin piecing together a puzzle that becomes more complicated. They need to act swiftly because, unknown to them, the killer has shifted their sights, and The Claret Pals are in the centre of the crosshairs.

Will they solve the puzzle and prevent the killer striking against them? Or is it already too late?
