Who is your guess?
 
 
Mystery character of the month

Here is your devilishly diabolical mystery character -- and that's your first clue!

This character is distinguished, disciplined and rather wicked. Yet as a literary villain they are endlessly intriguing.

This character, who is known as a spider in the center of its web, possesses a monstrous brilliance who could have been an upstanding person but chose iniquity instead.

There are true criminals who might have inspired the author's portrait of this character but they are only guesses.

When this mystery character appears on screen, they sometimes wear a pin of a fox, they love classical music and they believe they are invincible, declaring: "No one ever gets to me ... and no one ever will!"

Do you know who this mystery character is? When you've figured it out, email me at kmiller@mpr.org.
