Murder Mystery Synopsis:
Ivanna Katenka, the enigmatic airport security clerk with a flair for the extraordinary, is hosting an exclusive wine-tasting party at her cozy home in the quaint town of Gladerock. Known for her impeccable taste in wine and her ability to craft a tranquil, inviting atmosphere, Ivanna’s gatherings are nothing short of legendary. But this time, there’s a twist—since the last get-together, whispers of scandal and intrigue have rippled through this circle of friends.
Despite the tension lingering in the air, Ivanna is determined to bring everyone together, hoping the clink of glasses and the aroma of fine vintages will mend fractured relationships. You've received her invitation, and curiosity draws you in. Will the evening be one of reconciliation, or will the secrets of the past bubble to the surface? This is where your story begins.
