One house. Nine guests. Endless motives for murder...

Guests assemble at Hamlet Hall for a New Year's Eve party to remember.

They are to take part in a murder mystery game with a 1920s twist, and everyone has their own part to play.

But the evening has barely begun when one guest is found dead - killed by an injury to the head.

Someone is playing by their own rules.

And in a close-knit community, old rivalries run deep...

…breathing new life into the traditional locked-room mystery. Hindle puts a 21st century spin on a Golden Age tale that’s both captivating and cunning.
