Apéritif with sunset – the characters introduce themselves

 

The party continues inside at the table

with a nice ‘plateau de fruit de mer’

Apparently the gardner had been murdered earlier that week…

But why would we care…?

Inspecteur Thouvenel is invited at the table…

But still, the party goes on in high spirits…

Untill a loud scream is heard!

And one of the servants is found dead in the master’s bedroom!

Several guests run up to have a look at the spectacle.

The guests are invited to go back to the table. After all, it is just a servant, but speculations about why and how are firmly discussed.

Meanwhile the Inspecteur calls the brigade to get the corpse away.

The distress had an impact on Madam’s hairdo…

Meanwhile the Inspector’s wife has joined the table…

“So who was not in the room while the servant was being murdered?”, asks Grand Duke Kornilov.

While the mystery is being solved we keep it a mystery for you, for a next time.
