Who killed the king? Was it the handsome Lord that suddenly appeared on the scene? Was it the intense princess that loves to put on a show? Was it her sister, a refined lady? Perhaps it was an old madam with her daughter?
Murder, love, morals, mystery, passion. These and more are the words that describe Surmise, a story where everyone could be guilty.
