About the Show

A group of strangers is stranded in a remote English guesthouse during a blizzard. One of them is a murderer. As Detective Sergeant Trotter begins probing into the background of those present, it’s clear that everyone has a secret to hide. This show is an engaging, suspenseful whodunit that keeps audiences guessing until the very end. 

Cast of Characters 

Mollie Ralston (to play late 20s)
The pleasant, young owner of Monkswell Manor. She has “an ingenuous air,” which is to say she comes off as innocent and often unsuspecting. 

Giles Ralston (to play late 20s) 
Husband of Mollie, whom he loves. He may appear arrogant, but he’s really just overprotective of his new wife. 

Christopher Wren (to play 20s)
A bit flighty and somewhat neurotic. Is both quirky and vulnerable. And a little mysterious. 

Mrs. Boyle (to play 60s or 70s)
Retired, ancient, grumpy, unpleasant. If there’s a kind bone in her body, she hides it well.

Major Metcalf (to play middle-aged) 
Typical retired British military officer. Underneath his gruffness . . . is more gruffness. 

Miss Casewell (to play mid-20s)
Somewhat masculine in demeanor. She keeps her cards close to the vest and remains aloof . . . and a little mysterious.

Mr. Paravicini (to play middle-aged)
A man of unknown origin and age, he is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma . . . with an indeterminate accent. He’s a little mysterious.
