June 21st 1815 sees Austin House open to the village for a celebration unlike any other that has gone before. Emma Bleakwood, the only daughter of Colonel John Bleakwood, has come of age.

Keen to provide his darling Emma with a twenty-first birthday to remember, Colonel Bleakwood has invited the entire village to dine at his home. However, the evening does not go to plan. As the celebration commences the Bleakwood's butler is found dead in the library.

With the butler dead, the question everyone must answer is: who did it?

The Cast:

• John Bleakwood - Head of the family
  Wealthy, loud, brash and intimidating, Mr Bleakwood may be hosting a birthday party, but he certainly isn't enjoying himself.



• Emma Bleakwood - Daughter of John
  Beautiful, high-spirited, intellectual, and 'slightly' spoiled, Emma has been mistress of the house since her mother died.



• Will Larcey - Eligible son of a local mill owner
  Handsome, intelligent, gallant if a little reticent and very, very charming, Will Larcey is the most eligible bachelor in the district.



• Eleanor Dashing - Emma's friend
  Beautiful, clever and elegant, Eleanor may be quiet but she has the very best of manners.



• Nicolas Bottomley - Family Solicitor
  Young and handsome in a bookish sort of way, Nicolas Bottomley is a hard working solicitor visiting from the big city.

Never run a large group mystery before? Then don't panic!

Hosting a Large Group Murder Mystery is time consuming, but with ample preparation and a good cast it is really quite simple and great fun!

In large group games it is impossible to give everyone a part, instead the mystery involves “cast members”� who are fully in the know and act out the mystery, and the guests act as detectives trying to solve the murder.

Large group games come in several different formats, clue based, cast based, multi-room, single room, or a mixture of them all.

This particular game requires 5 cast (who are fully in the know) and the use of 1 large dining room . One murder occurs before the guests arrive and one during the evening. The game is constructed to be run during a formal dinner.

Your guests play the role of detectives. You can have any number of detectives for this mystery, your only limit is the size of your room, however we would suggest a number no greater than 200.
