Ghostly Sleuth
Cold Case Cracker is a compact blue threat that pulls value from its own demise. For {3}{U} you get a 3/3 creature with flying that begs a trade rather than avoiding it. When it dies you investigate and create a Clue token, turning a casualty into card advantage and keeping pressure on opponents while you refill your hand.
Play it where tempo and card selection intersect. It fits naturally into sacrifice synergies and artifact matter decks that can convert Clues into multiple draws. In the context of Murders at Karlov Manor the Cracker reads like a patient investigator who will not be silenced. Expect it to work well with flicker, sacrifice outlets, and any deck that benefits from recurring flying bodies and incremental value.
