Seven people are trapped in a lonely mansion at the top of a mountain where a private detective races to identify the killer before no one is left alive.

Meanwhile a childhood romance is about to rekindle, as a rich relative promises to reveal which guest will be granted a prize. The detective is disturbed to realize things are not what they seem when teams are formed to search for the promised treasure. Detective Joe O'Conner wonders how far greed will take this odd group, his dubious playmates of childhood. He will need all his training, experience and instinct to solve this case, but a friend wonders if a bad case of love will keep him too distracted to be effective.

This cozy mystery will delight any amateur sleuth with the twists and turns of the story, until at the end, all are confronted by a startling exposure. What is the real meaning of a collection of chess sets? Which clues will bring the answer before disaster hits?
