- Synopsis
- Wittenham Park Manor. Dark, imposing, and impossibly expensive to maintain. The cash-poor Lord Gilroy has tried everything to raise some capital, to no avail. When Lady Gilroy goes bankrupt, Lloyd's calls in its debts, and an unethical realtor threatens to claim his land, the hapless aristocrat is forced to open the manor for an Agatha Christie Murder Weekend. The paying guests are a suspicious lot: Priscilla Worthington, the actress who keeps a bottle of gin hidden in her pocketbook; Welch, a money-hungry land developer eager to turn Wittenham Park into condominiums; Jemma Savage, a reporter for a seedy crime magazine; Jemma's father, a retired claims investigator; and a pair of adulterous lovers who spend the weekend sneaking through darkened corridors to evade their spouses. When Welch turns up dead, the game becomes all too serious. No one can leave until the killer is found, but Welch is only the first victim....
