Hi, my name is Rick. I was born and raised in central Pennsylvania and graduated from Penn State. After grad school at UMass Amherst, I moved to Nahant, Massachusetts (smallest town in the state). I worked as a Systems Analyst and Project Manager for the Division of Fisheries & Wildlife.

I'm thinking about getting a Captain's license someday and possibly running small fishing charters.
I've been doing crosswords for many years now, and I used to construct them for our (now defunct) town newsletter - "Nahant Harbor Review". The meta puzzles take crosswords to a whole new level, and I began constructing them in January 2022. So far I've been having a lot of fun with them.
Below are the metas that I've published to date:

This is my entry for Crosshare's March Midi Contest. Good luck solving the mystery, er, meta!
Hint 1: As Sherlock Holmes would say, finding the weapon and location is elementary. The killer, however, not so much...
