Criminal Case #10 - Under The Knife

Under the Knife is a case featured in Criminal Case, appearing as the tenth case of the game as well as the city of Grimsborough. It takes place in the Industrial Area, a district based in Grimsborough.
The police found a plastic surgeon named Alan Cardwell left for dead in an alley. The killer was eventually incriminated to be Paul Oaster, a writer.
Paul fell in love with a singer named Samantha Warner and would do anything to protect her.
