In Episode I, Watersdown Affair, you have received an invitation to Watersdown Mansion, the elegant home of Sir Roger Watersdown. It s the winter of 1936. Upon arriving, the guests discover a most unwelcome surprise murder! Come in costume and assume the role of one of these eight suspects: Dr. Malcolm T. Praktiss (Sir Roger s personal physician and known as the Healer to the Rich and Famous , Miranda T. Shetes (the beautiful young American actress), Roger S.B. Astird (long lost illegitimate son of Sir Roger and avid mountain climber), Dame Allison Bigh (highly regarded author of bestselling English mystery novels), Prosper Alvin Bates, Esquire (enjoys a close relationship as Sir Roger s attorney, personal advisor, and golfing companion), Donald J. Brooks (brilliant financial strategist and successful international banker), Florence Wing Brooks (former model and Don s lovely socialite wife), or Eiaguielle R. Aminmund (Sir Roger s confidential secretary highly talented, motivated and indispensable). Imagine your home is a 1930 s English mansion, as you and your guests enjoy hours of suspense and intrigue but mainly humor as you solve the crime over roast beef and yorkshire pudding...with of course a French red burgundy or bordeaux. Trifle or apple pie anyone? Or would you prefer brandy or port for dessert?
