An Ed Fletcher Production

Death by Chocolate
by Paul Freed

Directed by Robin New

The Meadowbrook Health Resort, a spa and health club whose motto happens to be "Get Fit or Die Trying," is gearing up for its grand reopening.

Members of the newly renovated resort are dropping like flies, including famed chef Edith Chiles. On the eve of the grand re-opening, this is not the best advertisement!

It's up to John Stone, the manager, to find the cause and the murderer. Delightfully sarcastic and cynical, Stone finds himself teaming up with Ed Parlor, mystery writer and amateur sleuth, in a wacky race against time.

The clues point to a sinister box of chocolates, and the suspects include all the outlandish characters working for the resort.

Could it be Lady Riverdale, owner of the resort, and a woman with dark secrets? Or Ralph Deadwood, gym instructor and all around cad? Dick Simmering, the aerobics instructor? Anne, the panic stricken nurse? Or could it be "Sweet Pea" Meadowbrook, overweight and grieving daughter of the recently deceased founder of the resort? Or one of "the others?"
