But the lighthearted gathering soon takes a dark turn as the guests are caught in a deadly game. The group soon discovers that the house is under the control of hardened criminals, and there is a killer among them. Now trapped, George must find a way to thwart their plans while getting himself and Meggie out alive. Luckily, one of the guests is Albert Campion—a notorious party crasher with a surprisingly good knack for solving mysteries. |
