After everyone went to their rooms they noticed that each of them had ten little Indian statues.

That night a record played and nobody knew where it came from. The record mentioned each person in the house and someone that they had been involved with who had died. Everyone was shocked at what had just happened. Later that evening, the butler's wife was found dead. She was the first one to get murdered in this rampage. The people on the island don't think much of the death. They believed that she died of natural causes. One by one the people on the island are mysteriously murdered. Finally someone realized that there were two Indian statues missing from the mantle. This coincides with the two people who have just been murdered.
