Ten china figures stand in a row on the dining table of a house on an island off the Devon coast, one for each guest who arrived by boat that afternoon and now cannot leave. After dinner, a voice with no body in the room reads out ten murders, one per guest, each one committed in life and never once tried in a court of law.
Ten little soldier boys went out to dine; One choked his little self and then there were nine.
The blurb, the gist, the why of the day and the work itself are in the app. The first button needs it on this device; the second gets it there.
