My name is Ernest Cunningham. I've spent the last few years solving murders. But a bank heist is a new one, even for me.

The doors are chained shut. No one's coming in or out. Which means that when someone in the bank is murdered, hostages become suspects.

• The bank robber
• The manager
• The security guard
• The teenage gamer
• The film producer
• The priest
• The receptionist
• The patient
• The carer
• Me

Turns out, more than one person planned to rob the bank today – and you can steal more from a bank than just money…Who is stealing what? Who is not only a thief, but also a killer? And can I crack the case, before time runs out?
