Noir I: The Apple's Ransom
In an Equestria without any princesses, nothing's black and white -- especially for a private investigator named Twilight Sparkle.
Twilight Sparkle's handled plenty of cases in her years as a private investigator, but she started young, and she has a good assistant. Now, with the promise of a juicy case she's heading to Ponyville.
What she finds is a web of lies and greed holding together a town owned by a wealthy family and a rogue's gallery of suspects.
