Storyline
The year is 1988. You are Olympus Peraux, world famous detective.
Last week, you were called to the deathbed of the world’s greatest female fencer, Olympic gold medalist Ilona Elek, in London. As her dying wish, she requested that you track down her sister Margit, and to ensure that the contents of Ilona’s safe are passed on directly into Margit’s hands.
After traveling to Budapest, you set off in search of Margit. But your little grey cells tell you: there’s more to this job than meets the eye.
