## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The black Rolls-Royce idles at a Dorset pier at dusk. Six sealed envelopes wait on the pier railing.

Miranda’s invitation smells of salt and old money. By breakfast the next morning the body of the youngest guest floats face-down in the manor pond.

Like Christie guided by a gothic film student.

**Mood tags**: paranoid, slow-burn, tender
