The Reading of the Will
Set in 1935, the story begins with the death of retired businessman Felix Abercrombie. Family, friends, and acquaintances have gathered in the Great Hall at Hanford Prep for a memorial dinner and the reading of his will.
As the evening unfolds, events take a shocking and unexpected turn when another guest is murdered. With tensions rising and suspicions mounting, an investigation is launched. The clues are all there, but can they be pieced together before the night is over?
Working alongside the lead investigator, guests will examine evidence, question suspects, uncover hidden motives, and follow a trail of clues in a race to reveal the truth. Will you identify the killer before the final dramatic reveal?
Gather your fellow sleuths and prepare for an evening of intrigue, deception, fine dining, and unforgettable entertainment.
