Synopsis

Trying to get their hands on more than a little inheritance, a group of young people hide the body of a dead tycoon.

But what starts as a lark quickly becomes all too serious when they discover that the body is in fact a murder victim.

A comedy about business and finance, with a strong undercurrent of criminal activity, the play combines humor, intricate plotting and a confounding murder.

Press Reviews

"A different Agatha Christie. The play has deserted the familiar path of the whodunnit type thriller into the realms of black comedy. The action is played for laughs rather than chills, but once the storyline has been established, there is plenty of humour and sparkle to carry it along to the usual surprise climax."

— The Stage

"The play packs a wallop of surprises and unanticipated turns… very theatrical."

— The Berkshire Edge
