This psychological drama is a
thinking person's Gothic thriller, a dark comedy that is both funny and
frightening. On a snowy night, Inspector Ruffing is called to a remote house to investigate the headlong plunge of
Patrick Roarke down the main staircase. He becomes involved in the lives
of five alluring and dangerous women: Marcy, the beautiful Viennese
governess with a past; Mrs. Ravenscroft, the flirtatious lady of the
manor; Gillian, her charming but possibly demented daughter; Mrs. French,
the formidable and passionate cook, and Dolly, a terrified maid. They lead
him through a bewildering labyrinth of contradictory versions of Patrick's
demise and that of the late Mr. Ravenscroft. There are ghosts on the
staircase, skeletons in the closet, and much more than the Inspector
bargained for. His investigation leads into own tortured soul and the
nature of truth itself. You will not guess the ending, but you will be
teased, seduced, bewildered, amused, frightened and led to a dark
encounter with truth or something even stranger.
