ABOUT THE BOOK:
In January 1947, Lynn Fontanne and Alfred Lunt, well-known acting couple, invite six theater people–writers, actors, spouses–to Ten Chimneys, their rural Wisconsin estate, to work on a play. Once there, a blizzard strands them far from town without telephone service, though heat and electricity are still working. All goes well until the second night, when one of their guests is murdered. As more and more secrets emerge, Lynn and Alfred realize that one of their company must be the murderer. Everyone has means. Everyone has opportunity. And everyone seems to have motive. Before the storm lessens enough for the snowplow and the authorities to arrive, Lynn and Alfred must keep everyone calm, even as they work to ferret out the killer. Mistaken identity, multiple motives by multiple people, darkness and weather, to say nothing of numerous twists and turns, serve to lead characters, and readers, on a wild romp through a house containing plenty of places for a murderer to play hide-and-seek. Will time run out and the killer escape or, worse, K*ll again?
