Northamptonshire, 1892. As the fog thickens over the cobbled streets of Grendon, a select few gather at Blackwood Manor for the reading of Lord Blackwood’s will. The reclusive nobleman has died under curious and madness ridden circumstances, and rumours are already swirling about his fortune, his secrets, and the whereabouts of the legendary Crimson Star, a cursed ruby stolen years ago from a sacred Indian temple.
Tensions rise when the contents of the will are revealed: one guest is set to inherit everything. But before they can celebrate, or flee, they are found dead, brutally murdered, with a fragment of the ruby’s shattered case clenched in their bloodied hand.
Now, with the estate locked down and suspicion hanging heavy in the air, a detective known only as Killburn is called in to investigate. But as they dig deeper, it becomes clear that the Crimson Star may not be missing at all and someone among the guests will stop at nothing to keep its secrets buried.
From opium dens to secret societies, double lives to long-held grudges, every revelation brings Killburn closer to the truth, and closer to danger. Because in this house, everyone has something to hide.
And the curse of the Crimson Star is only just beginning. Can you beat Killburn to the solution?
If you think you have the detective skills to solve this mystery, then there is not time to wait, get your tickets now, because…… the games afoot!
And there is not only a murder to solve but a World Championship crown at stake!
