Pebbles on the Beach is a case featured in Criminal Case as the introductory case of the game. It is the first case set in the Bayside Avenue district of Rosenoque.

Plot
The player arrived in the airport of Bayside Avenue, Ashbourne to meet their first partner, Detective Major Lucas. When the two detectives got to the station, they were welcomed by Chief Thomas Ernest, who told Major to take the player out for a day at the beach. However the two detectives were encountered by a scream from the nearby lifeguard hut where a man was saying that he had discovered a body.

The victim was a lifeguard named Limbani Bongani, who was stabbed in the heart. Coroner Ethan September deduced the victim was attacked and they scuffled before the victim's downfall. The murder weapon, a lifeguard's knife was also found in the body. Soon a shark was reported at the beach where the victim was working at. The suspects was soon listed, the first being a fellow lifeguard and the one who discovered the body, Scott Lelney, who had a love interest in the victim. A party planned at the area where the victim worked was revealed to be run by a party planner named Kyle Kingston, who blamed the victim for getting viciously drunk at his parties.

Shark expert Benjamin Grayson was jealous of the victim as the victim took all the credit for saving lives from shark attacks. Soon the victim's girlfriend Kat McKenzie blamed Kyle for her boyfriend's death despite having a heated argument with the victim the night previously. Surfer Sandy Bonneface accused the victim of giving him false information, resulting in the former's near death with a shark.
