Description
He celebrates his return to New Orleans after a long absence by giving a dinner in the unique ‘1840 Room’ at Antoine’s (a famous restaurant). The dinner is ostensibly planned to introduce his charming niece to his friends in Louisiana, but it also serves as a springboard from which to renew his courtship with the beautiful widow Amelie Lalande. Thirty hours later Amelie’s daughter Odile is found dead in mysterious circumstances,
and the dinner guests all become suspects.
