When Greg (Michael Kitchen) meets Marcey (Sophie Okonedo) at a party, he has some explaining to do concerning the close proximity of the corpse of his wife's ex-lover. Marcey is acting as a waitress at the gathering, but is in fact a public servant. Her attempts to discover whether the death was an accident or murder form the brunt of the movie, directed with aplomb by David Richards (IN DENIAL OF MURDER).
