We expected a thriller full with twists and the performance exceeded our expectation, showcasing a gripping narrative filled with crime, betrayal, and unexpected plot twists that captivated us from beginning to end.
Written by Edward Taylor, “Murder by Misadventure” is a sophisticated crime thriller that will easily keep you on the edge of your seat. It tells the story of two successful playwrights, Harold Kent and Paul Riggs, who have been professional partners for years.
