Invitation to Murder

Leslie Ford cordially invites you to spend the weekend at a murder-haunted mansion...

Escape the workaday world and come to this luxurious Newport, Rhode Island, playground. Watch the idle rich at their games. See a delightful young heiress falling in love. Observe high society's most fascinating cad in action. See three lovely Paris-garbed ladies play hide-and-seek with a huge inheritance. Attend the lavish Saturday night dance of death...
