Among the guests who arrive during a blinding snow storm are Christopher Wren, a young architect who gets on Gile’s nerves while making up to Molly. Mrs. Boyle is a sour ex workhouse matron who has more than a touch of cruelty about her. Major Metcalf is the strong silent type and it’s his silence that makes him mysterious. Miss Casewell is the slightly masculine type who has a lot of fun at Mrs. Boyle’s expense. Mr. Paravicini, whose car broke down in the storm was not expected, and can thoroughly explain his mysterious appearance. Sgt Trotter is the last to arrive and is there to investigate a murder that took place earlier in London.
