The Unexpected Guest

Work:: The Unexpected Guest (S5410)

Opened at the Duchess Theatre in London on 12 August 1958. A powerful drama which will keep you guessing as to the identity of the murderer from beginning to end. Lost in the fog, Michael Starkwedder stumbles into Richard Warwick's study to find him dead and Richard's wife, Laura, standing near him with a gun. Warwick was a detestable brute, so when Laura confesses to his murder, Starwedder agrees to give her an alibi.
