Written By: Agatha Christie

Hudson Players Club presents this classic murder mystery. Newlyweds Giles and Molly Ralston have converted their stately home into a country guest house, in the hopes of maintaining the old family estate.
The quirky Christopher Wren keeps the other houseguests on edge. The forbidding Mrs. Boyle surveys her accommodations and the other guests with a jaundiced eye. Major Metcalf, a retired British army officer, disarms the Ralstons with an unflappable, avuncular charm. The enigmatic Miss Casewell keeps her own counsel but is not an opponent to trifle with. And who is Paravicini? Does his charming continental accent and courtly manner mask a sinister agenda?
The storm-locked house closes in to engulf them in a mysterious and frightening entanglement of conflicting old secrets, new suspicions and murder.
Detective Sergeant Trotter is in a deadly race to find an insane killer who is stalking someone at Monkswell Manor.
