Overview: Ten people sat down to dinner with murder in their hearts.
By the strange terms of a will, a family has to meet each year for dinner at the house of their Aunt Agatha, the “rich old lady who won’t die!” at one of these annual gatherings, at which Aunt Agatha is not present, the possibilities of carrying out a murder and getting away with it are discussed, especially by a dissolute nephew of the old lady. Next morning he is found dead after a drunken accident. Ten days later another member of the family dies in an accident. Both deaths are ruled as ‘death by misadventure.’ Neither coroner’s verdicts were questioned, but when an out-of-work journalist in need of a story buys a drink for Agatha’s butler he realised all is not as it seems and a particularly cunning murderer is killing off the heirs one by one.
First published in 1932, this is a Golden Age Murder Mystery.
