A chain of events is key

Look at any mystery. There's nothing more satisfying than your basic whodunit. A late night, a dark alley, the inevitable body over by the dumpster. Ever notice the lack of moon in these stories? Maybe it's because of smog or light pollution, but even when a body is pulled out of a trunk somewhere in the woods there's no moon to speak of. Perhaps the moon is absent in each case. Perhaps it simply turns away pretending such things never happen under its watch. Perhaps it feels above it all. But that's the moon for you.
