It is June 1940 aboard a train leaving Paris. German troops are about to enter the city. Roads are a hopeless snarl; the trains are full with little space aboard them. Yet, to remain in the city will not be pleasant. Aboard a government train heading for the safety of southern France, a murder is discovered. The passengers (your guests) must decide who committed the crime. Certainly, the elegant refugees and the dramatic circumstances of their flight from Paris will provide the answer to this mystery. CHARACTERS: Khover T. Ageante, Princess Idelle Chattre, Malcom R. Conntint, Mary K. Trairie, RAF Group Captain Weyland W. Awfcorce, Barbra Z. Enhussie, Duke Schwäzhe B.U. Klare, Belinda Screete —description from the publisher
