Pearl Montana

Pearl Montana was one of the suspects during the murder investigation of archaeologist (and her ex-husband) Burt Montana in Temple of Doom (Case #96, or Case #40 of Pacific Bay) and Army Colonel Spangler in The Ties That Bind (Case #100, or Case #44 of Pacific Bay).

Profile
Pearl is a 31-year-old adventurer/archaeologist who suffers from sunburns for wanton exposure in Rhine Canyon's ultraviolet rays. She knows Aztec and astronomy, and is also known to eat hot peppers.

The Seeds of Death
Pearl was called into the investigation after Amy Young and the player found an old photograph of Burt and herself in Burt's office. The player had to confirm the female as being Pearl before the conversation started as Amy wasn't sure whether or not it was Pearl. Pearl didn't like any time-wasting conversations, but Amy had to inform her that Burt was dead. Pearl told the team that Burt and herself were in the midst of a divorce due to an inner competition between the couple for the title of the finest archaeologist in the world. Moreso Pearl was upset by Amy and the player presenting her a pic of Burt and herself during the conversation.

Pearl would be approached by Amy and the player for a second conversation after the team found her map to the temple in the Aztec Temple. Pearl was aghast to know that the team made it to the Aztec Temple before she did, to which Pearl blamed Burt for stealing her map from him so that he would be the first one to reach the Aztec Temple. Pearl would then go back to as far as her college years on how she met Burt, and knowing throughout her years she saw Burt as a thief of sorts. Pearl didn't like Burt's controlling attitude, which explained why she opted to file for a divorce. Pearl was a strong suspect due to her grudge against Burt, but was found innocent of murder after Judge Dante's court service ensued.
