=====Introduction=====
The setting is the Farnsworth Manor in Yorkshire in the Autumn of 1886. A country weekend party at the behest of Lady Kaye Carter goes horribly wrong when the the Sunday afternoon following the seance of the previous night, she's found dead. 

It's a dark and stormy night, the phone line is down but a servant has been sent to fetch the local constabulary.  Can the facts of the murder be discovered before they arrive, or must everyone keep a watchful eye and be denied the chance to leave the manor?  What of the rumours of the change in Lady Kaye's will?
