- Wednesday 10 December
- 7 – 9pm
- Hull Central Library + livestreamed to an online audience
A Christmas murder mystery featuring the real-life couple who invented Cluedo.
Christmas Eve, 1943. Anthony and Elva Platt arrive in a snowy English village to run a murder mystery game. Instead, they discover a real murder. The Pratts had planned for festive cheer, despite the wartime shortages. But when Anthony discovers the cook’s sister Miss Silver beaten to death, they instead find themselves investigating a shockingly real crime. The hotel manager Mr Browning is trying to keep the peace but the guests are agitated, Colonel Colman is about to take over the hotel for the war effort – and the mysterious Mrs Threadgold hasn’t been seen at all. Can the Pratts puzzle out this Christmas mystery before it’s too late.
Nicola Upson talks her new thriller with writer and Hull Noir co-founder, Nick Triplow.
