A glamorous wedding. A scandalous secret. A groom who may never make it to the honeymoon.

You're invited to a lavish 1920s wedding celebration where the champagne is flowing, the Charleston is calling, and everyone has something to hide.

But before the happy couple can enjoy their happily ever after, **there's been a murder!**

Suddenly, the wedding guests become detectives. Join the delightfully determined **Nagatha Christie**, sister of the legendary Agatha Christie, as you question suspects, uncover secrets, follow clues, and cast your vote.

Everyone has a motive. Someone is lying.

**Can you solve the murder before Nagatha Christie does?**
