Synopsis

The play is both a mystery and a thriller. The action takes place in the home of Jack and his girlfriend Maggie shortly after Jack has been released from court, having been accused of the manslaughter of ne'er do well Philip Mercer. The jury accept Jack's plea that he acted in self defence but as the story is retold, Maggie and friends Lynne & Dennis start to have their doubts. The truth about what really happened that night is gradually revealed, with shocking results.
