When Francis Grey’s boyfriend is murdered on the eve of his birthday, he opens up a not-so-official investigation and discovers more than he bargained for in this audaciously cheeky one-man whodunnit. Joined by a host of not-so-perfect and incredibly suspicious family members, everyone is a suspect. Just how far will Francis go to crack the case in his topsy-turvy quest for truth?
