Returning in the form of a ghost, Ronan meets the spirit of his long-dead wife, Julia. The perpetrator, known as the Bell Killer, finishes Ronan off by shooting him seven times in the chest. We begin with Ronan being thrown out of a window by the brutal and relentless serial murderer he was pursuing. In games usually death is the end of the story, but in this tale it’s only the beginning.

The game is played in a third-person view as the player navigates the protagonist, detective Ronan O’Connor, around the town of Salem. Murdered: Soul Suspect is an adventure stealth video game developed by Airtight Games and published in 2014 by Square Enix. “Seeing your own body lying in the street… it’s like looking in a mirror that you don’t want to see but can’t turn away from.”
