A violent storm rages outside, trapping the group of familiar guests inside Manor House. What was supposed to be a night to retrieve their past secrets and confront the will of the late Mr. Boddy turns deadly when his son, Nicholas Boddy, is found murdered in the lounge—struck with a candlestick.
Nicholas was no stranger to the underworld of blackmail, having uncovered the most damning secrets of those closest to him. But his latest scheme has backfired. His father’s inheritance and the legacy of secrets that have haunted their family for years have caught up with him—and now he’s dead. The storm outside is nothing compared to the tempest of lies that storm the halls of Manor House.
As the guests gather around his lifeless body, it becomes clear: someone in this room wanted Nicholas dead, and they’ll do anything to make sure their secrets stay buried. Was it Miss Scarlet, whose illustrious art dealings are on the verge of being exposed? Or Colonel Mustard, with a dark past that’s never been truly revealed? Perhaps Mrs. Peacock, whose financial misdeeds could bring down her political aspirations, or even Professor Plum, whose shady past might ruin his career in academia?
Everyone in the room has something to hide—and now, with the blackmail files gone, the stakes couldn’t be higher. The murderer could be anyone, and every secret, every action, could reveal the next clue.
Can you piece together the twisted web of betrayal, ambition, and old grudges to figure out who killed Nicholas Boddy? Or will the storm—both outside and inside—prevent you from finding the killer before they strike again?
