Synopsis
In the late 1800s, Martin and Rose manage a remote inn in the Pyrenean mountains.  Unable to make enough money from their honest trade, the couple allow their adopted son Violet to murder their customers so that they can purloin their belongings.  One stormy evening, a stagecoach shows up at the inn and its passengers decide to spend the night there, to the obvious delight of Martin and Rose.  This could be a bountiful evening, they decide.  Unfortunately, one of the new arrivals is a priest, Carnus, and Rose cannot help confessing her past crimes to him.  How can Carnus warn his fellow travelling companions that they are all in mortal danger without breaching the confidence of a confession...?
