Step into 1942…
Set to a soundtrack of steamship sirens and swinging jaziz the infamous Muskoka Detective, Rowena Mahaffy, is searching for a killer. The postmaster is dead…his murderer walks among us. Rowena must decipher coded loyalties, lascivious liaisons and bitter betrayal as the rest of the world questions her decency and innocence.
For one unforgettable night, TimberBeast Productions transforms the Muskoka Discovery Centre into a sultry world of whispered secrets and wartime scandal. The air hums with 1940s jazz-style music. Shadows stretch across historic exhibits. Strangers exchange knowing glances. And before the evening is through… a shocking crime will demand answers.
This is not just dinner.
