Description
In a quiet countryside estate, a gathering of intriguing personalities unfolds as host John Hillyard, a renowned detective writer, welcomes a select group of friends for a weekend of relaxation and intrigue. Set against the backdrop of an idyllic retreat, the atmosphere is ripe for the unexpected, with each guest harboring their own secrets and motives. Among them is Roger Sheringham, a character familiar to Hillyard’s literary world, whose presence promises a dash of wittiness and sharp observation.
As the evening progresses, a chilling revelation disrupts the serene facade. Events take a sinister turn, and suspicion begins to weave its way through the group. Armed with his keen analytical mind, Roger Sheringham embarks on a quest to uncover the truth behind the mysterious happenings, navigating through a web of deception and peril. The tension rises as the line between friend and foe blurs, leading to an unexpected climax.
This narrative expertly blends suspense with clever storytelling, immersing readers in a classic whodunit that captivates until the very last page. As Sheringham delves deeper into the enigma, the charm of the setting contrasts with the dark undertones, creating an engaging tapestry of human behavior and the complexities of trust.
