Description: With the notion of bringing together the most bitter of enemies for his own amusement, a bored, mischievous millionaire throws a house party. As a brutal snowstorm strands the unhappy guests, the party receives a most unwelcome visitor: death. Now the brilliant inspector Roderick Alleyn must step in to decipher who at the party is capable of cold-blooded murder. Inspector Alleyn receives a late invitation to a decidedly unsocial function, when a jaded millionaire is murdered at his own gala event. Reissue.
