A Shoddy Detective and The Art of Deception is a laugh-out-loud slapstick whodunnit featuring four actors, a dozen characters and a whole load of chaos.

However, when he cannot solve it himself he is forced to enlist the help of an old nemesis. Together, the pair must interrogate the many characterful suspects that reside at the manor, in order to catch the conniving culprit and solve the crime of the century!
