Introduction to Your and You're in a Mystery Setting

The detective examined the strange clue left at the scene. 'This is your only lead,' he muttered, focusing on the faint footprint. As he stepped back, he noticed a note: 'Your secret is safe with me.' The detective wondered if the suspect truly believed that. Later, he thought about how clever the criminal was to hide their identity behind such a simple message. Could this word play give away your true intentions? He knew that understanding the difference between your and you're might just solve the case.
