About us
Join us at Langdon Court Hotel for a fantastic Theatrical performance inclusive of welcome drink on arrival, three course dinner with tea and coffee.'The Wreck of the Moonstone'
It is 1938 and war clouds are gathering over Europe. In a coastal Devon village, a cargo ship sailing out of Plymouth, has been run aground on the beach. The Captain says that he believed he had been chased by a submarine, he thought possibly a U Boat, and that he had been left with no choice but to beach the ship. The boat had been bound for Rotterdam, carrying machine parts for factories in Holland and Belgium. It was also carrying a small contingent of passengers. This odd assortment of passengers were rescued from the boat after it ran aground and are now, temporarily, staying at the Langdon Court Hotel.
Of course, these are dangerous times, and rumours of spies and intrigue abound. For example, it was only a year or two before that Edward 8th had been courting Wallace Simpson on Devon's Burgh Island and it had been rumoured that whilst there, he had been in secret talks with envoys from Berlin.
In this atmosphere of suspicion and double dealing, the passengers meet up for a dinner which they have arranged to thank their rescuers and, over the course of the evening some very unpleasant truths are revealed, and a rather nasty murder occurs.
After the murder one of the passengers takes charge of the investigation until the authorities arrive.
All the clues are there to lead to the right conclusion, but will they be correctly deduced? The investigator, with the help of the other guests at the Dinner must get to the truth before the night is out!
