dark and stormy night

Grandfather is dying and he had sent for his vulture family. The bickering family members argue with each other and then they find him unconscious after suffering from an apparent stroke. Someone is killed. The police is called. It's a murder mystery in an old mansion during a stormy night.

There are a ton of characters. Non of them stands out. There is a lot of back stories to keep track. It's an old fashion murder mystery set in the standard location. I would have liked to stay at that location. The mystery needs to be solved right there that night. It starts rambling on and on. I wasn't really keeping track of the characters to begin with. The further away the story gets away from that night, the less intensity it is able to retain.

O'Leary finds a semi-automatic pistol in Mittie's dresser, then tells Sarah a cartridge is missing from it. It would not be possible for him to know how many cartridges were loaded in the gun to begin with.

Nurse Sarah Keate: Well, this gets more and more like a fairy story - Cinderella's slipper found by her Prince Charming, except you weren't built for the part.
Detective Lt. Lance O'Leary: Well, I may not be a prince - just a detective.
Nurse Sarah Keate: You still overestimate yourself.
