Synopsis
Some months have passed since the ghastly
events in Monument House, well-known to those familiar with Norman
Robbins' earlier A Tomb
With A View. Now Mortimer Crayle, the crusty old lawyer, and his
secretary Zoe, have gathered the last remaining Tomb family members
(as offbeat a bunch as the original occupants) at the old house, ostensibly to inform them
about their inheritance. But Crayle has designs on the inheritance which
demands the death of all Tombs. Fog descends on the gloomy mansion and
in cobwebby corridors things - and people - are seldom what
they seem. With poison in every decanter and mysterious disappearances into secret
passageways, hosts and guests alike join the increasing number of bodies in the
cellar. |
