It Could Be Any One of Us

A thunderstorm. In a windswept country house, a family of failures wrangles over a will: a detective who has never solved a case; a writer, an artist and a composer whose works have never been published, shown or performed, and a dysfunctional teenager. Here are the prime ingredients for a murder mystery, but this diversion is by Alan Ayckbourn and it has a number of surprises. The victim is not who it should be, the murderer's identity changes overnight and the thrills are leavened with tongue in cheek humor.
