Synopsis

Intriguing glimpses into a cupboard full of family skeletons, together with some serious, and not so serious, detective work, combine in this unusual suspense play, to keep everyone guessing until the very last page!

Returning home from prison, after serving fifteen years for allegedly murdering his mother.

Matthew finds his three sisters, his wife and his father waiting for him.

Still protesting his innocence, Matthew's arrival prompts the question of who did kill Mother scornful Celia, dotty Emma, cold Lavinia, flighty Gilda or even gentle Father?

Accusations and hypotheses abound, but it takes an apparent suicide, and a good deal of amateur sleuthing, before the truth is revealed and the lady can be taken away.
