About This Book

Gregory Porlock had brought them together... the dithering Mrs. Oakley and her rich businessman husband ... nouveau riche Mr. and Mrs. Tote, still uncomfortable hobnobbing with the hoity-toity... the Mastermans, a brother and sister raised above genteel poverty by the timely death of their aunt... Leonard Carroll, actor and clever man-about-town ...Moira Lane, sophisticated society beauty.. Justin Leigh, her escort... and the innocent Dorinda Brown, young social secretary with an older man in her past.

A group of house party guests with apparently nothing in common ... until their host, the oh-so-charming and "wicked" Gregory Porlock is found with a knife in his back and blackmailer as his epitaph. Only the sharp eyes of Miss Silver will be able to see through the myriad motives and clues--and discover which guest has made his or her final payment in blood ...
