SODERSTROM CASTLE ICON AFFAIR: A MOST UNHOLY HEIST

Something priceless has gone missing – and you're already a suspect.

A gathering of aristocrats, socialites, collectors, and questionably trustworthy guests are assembling at the grand Soderstrom Castle on Grandview for an evening of culture, cocktails, and carefully concealed motives. The crown jewel of the host's collection – a Russian Icon, said to possess both divine beauty and extreme value is on display. With the Castle on lockdown, suspicion spreads faster than gossip in a parlor room.

As alibis unravel and alliances shift, guests must navigate scandals, secrets, and a dash of old-world superstitions to uncover the truth.

We’ve snagged one ticket to give away to one lucky detective.

For this , we're throwing it all the way back to 1920 with this amazing shot of the Detweiller Ice Company wagon making its rounds through the city!

Talk about a winter workout—crews would actually cut massive blocks of ice directly from the frozen Illinois River during the winter, storing them in giant "ice houses" to keep Peoria cool all summer long. 🧊

How it worked: If you needed ice for your household icebox, you’d simply put a sign in your front window. The ice man would stop his horse-drawn wagon, haul a 25-, 50-, or 75-pound block to your door, and load it up! 🏡💪
