The Murder Mystery Mystery

A murder mystery weekend spirals into chaos when the actor playing the Butler disappears on the first night.

His predecessor died in a freak accident less than two weeks ago, adding to a disturbing pattern: every actor who’s taken on the role has either disappeared, quit, or died. Nervous cast members are starting to call it The Butler’s Curse.

Luckily, The Pie & Mash Detective Agency are on the scene.

With a serious lack of cases, and tension building in their relationship, Simon has whisked Jane away for a mini break which is getting less relaxing by the minute.

Will they crack the case of the 'curse'? Finish the murder mystery they paid several hundred pounds to play? And possibly even…solve their first murder?
