The sun warms the pale stones of Nicosia as you tap the Loquiz app and step into the part-dimmed world of a Victorian detective story. Streets that have carried merchants, soldiers, and republicans become the stage: a narrow alley offers the first clue, a shuttered café frames a suspicious silhouette, and the Venetian walls watch like a patient jury.
