Her story
Dex grew up in the back room of a village library, reading every whodunit twice: once for fun, once to catch the author cheating. She trained as a doctor because patients turned out to be the best mysteries of all, each one a locked room with the clues hidden in plain sight. She keeps a corkboard of unsolved cases at home, complete with red string, and is no longer allowed to bring it to work.
The deerstalker was a thank-you gift from her first zebra diagnosis, and she has not taken it off since.

- “Diagnosis nailed. Frame it.”
- “Sharp work, detective.”
- “The butler didn't do it. You did.”
- “Clue by clue. Textbook.”
- “I'd let you read my X-rays.”
