OVERVIEW

 

The plot takes place at a snowy farmhouse that is momentarily cut off from the outside world. In the morning, the only man in the house is found dead in his bedroom, stabbed in the back. There are eight women in the house each in a different relationship with the deceased man. Who killed him? Who is hiding something? Was it one of them? While looking for answers they all show their true faces and find out more than they need to know. So who is ultimately responsible? Is it the stunning wife, the sensitive sister, the sister-in-law, the devoted housekeeper, the mother-in-law, one of the two cute daughters or the new maid? How is the investigation going to end when eight amateurs decide to take matters into their own hands? 

 

A bitter detective comedy with a plot full of tension, witty irony, and acting opportunities. That’s Eight Women by Robert Thomas – a master of subtle and sophisticated plot twists.
