The guilt-edged invitation winks at me as I take it from the mantelpiece.
"You are invited to share my 70th birthday." But what intrigues me is the last line…"I shall be making an announcement that will surprise you all."
A man as wealthy and powerful as Maxwell has many so-called friends, hangers-on, hopefuls and enemies, and the guest list reflects most of these. Although, I must confess there are a few surprises. Fabio Fabritzio, for example. He's the pool boy and apart from being visually beautiful, I can't imagine why Maxwell would include him.

"Murderer! You killed them just as surely as if you twisted the knife in their hearts. I hope you rot in hell… I hope you…"
My sister's face was contorted with fury, spittle on her lips.
— From "All in a Day's Work" by David Campbell
