The year is 1946, Jasper Peacock hosts a party at his English country manor house. Among the guests are two Hollywood stars, a decorated military captain, the adopted daughter of Jasper and his wife and the local randy vicar.
As Jasper gets drunk, the cracks in his relationship become clear - even the maid has a reason to have a vendetta. So when Someone stabs him in the heart, it really could have been any one of the houseguests.
Inspector Harrington arrives to get to the bottom of Jasper's sticky end and finds that all the guests have more than one reason to feel guilty.
