Gobble, Gobble, Death & Trouble - He was world renowned for his gourmet turkey dinners. Chef and Restaurant owner Ramsey Gordon was known to be a tyrant of a boss and an ill-mannered business associate. His recipe for turkey had remained a secret for years. Last night, Gordon's restaurant was to have been jam-packed with hungry customers, yet, it was not to be. The famished fowl feasters were unexpectedly told the sad news that Gordon was dead, the victim of an unfortunate accident. You will become one of the investigators and work with the Detective and Charlotte Murder Mystery Company to figure out "WHODUNIT!"
