The Relaxarium Day Spa has it all - manicures, mud wraps, massages, and murder. The body of Roman Hans, massage therapist on staff, has just been found, evidently strangled by his last client. The following facts have been determined; can you find the killer?

  1. Every spa client who got both a pedicure and a body scrub also got a chemical peel.
  2. Every spa client who got both a facial and a mud wrap also got a pedicure.
  3. Every spa client who got both a manicure and a facial also got a mud wrap.
  4. Every spa client who got a facial also got a manicure, a mud wrap, or both.
  5. No spa client who got both a manicure and a pedicure also got a chemical peel.
  6. Roman only massaged clients who had gotten a chemical peel, a body scrub, or both.
  7. Roman only massaged clients who had gotten a facial or who hadn't gotten a manicure.
  8. Roman did not massage any client who got both a pedicure and a chemical peel.
