The ladies go to Mr. Drake's night-club which Vicky found out he's somehow connected to, see he's performing there as drag-queen, and worse: during star Michael Dupont's act Howard runs out in panic after finding Drake's shot corps. Vicky believes in Howard's innocence unconditionally, even accepts his weird job, so Jessica is determined to help initially unappreciative SFPD Detective Lt. Floyd Novack find the real killer. The club proves a viper's nest full of motives both in showbiz, including promising performer Freddy York, who would miss out on a dream contract because held him to a lousy contract and later gets wounded in an intentional 'accident' on stage, and the Drake family's (adulterous) love life. It all hangs on the tiny details only Jessica notices and makes sense of..",

  "description": "When Jessica hears on TV that director-producer Jerry Lydecker is turning the movie after her respectable mystery book The Corps Danced At Midnight into cheap slash junk with sex and gore, she flies to Hollywood to protest, but studio boss Marty Strindberg, who sends her a junior lawyer, and Lydecker have a contract clause she signed waving her rights to object. When Jessica intends to apologize to Lydecker, she finds him killed on he set, and becomes the only obvious suspect. Fortunately LAPD Detective Mack Brody, an amateur mystery writer himself, has enough faith in Jessica to encourage her snooping and believe she saw evidence which disappeared during the minute she talked to the security guard. Lydecker's ruthless behavior and romantic affair with the unexperienced female co-star provide several possible motives...",

The will on videotape gives his shocked relatives and estate staff peanuts, $15,000,000 goes to Denton's pet hound Teddy, who is shortly after found drugged after biting old local Isaiah Potts. Family lawyer Marcus Boswell, who is constantly called by his broker, is challenged by the human heirs' lawyer on account of the dog's mental competence. Then Trish Langley is found killed by the security gate, the button which operates it from security guard Barnes's closed room has Teddy's paw print on it, he must have been trained to do do. Jessica works out precisely what ties in, how, and what doesn't..",

When Jessica goes to a college to give a mystery writing guest lecture, she takes a secretary for the first time, not an older woman as she expected but bright, charming, extremely efficient student David Tolliver. Just when they celebrated ending the work in a restaurant, the police gets David for questioning about Allison's murder, just because he was seen meeting her and accepted gifts and dinners. Jessica grants David the benefit of the doubt and follows up on a call to meet about an alibi for David with young married Lila Schroeder Kowalski, only to see her collapse murdered. David now has an alibi and admits he saw Lila, secretly because of her hunky but violently jealous husband Jack Kowalski, who claims David wasn't the threat to his marriage. Jessica tells dean Edmund Gerard's secretary Amelia she's not interested romantically in her host, who makes a surprising confession after Jessica is attacked in college after asking flirtatious professor Prof. Todd Lowery suspicious questions during her next lecture. Now she sets a trap...",

Shortly after Horatio is found dead in his self-locked office, apparently suicide, but actually got a fatal blow on the head before the shot. After Erica Baldwin becomes a rich widow for the fourth time, she hires Jessica to prove it was murder so the life-insurance can be cleared. Horatio's secretary makes a false confession. Almost everybody had some reason to hate Horatio, who was quite dirty in business in various ways. Jessica soon finds out how the killer got in and out while stealing Horatio's secret files and more, while the murder makes another victim, then she sets a trap...",

  "description": "US Congressman Wendell Joyner gets a fatal heart-attack at 's party, arranged by Congressman Dan Keppner and dodgy lobbyist Harry Parmel, actually at a party for a potential successor, officially in his bed. The governor of Maine demands Jessica to fill in as federal legislator for a few weeks till the party can officially select a new Congressman. She keeps on Joyner's staff for her short tenure, notably helpful driver-press agent Joe Blinn and administrative assistant Diana Simms. Detective Lieutenant Avery Mendelsohn tails Jessica and explains he suspects Joyner to be murdered after finding out his corpse was moved. She decides to help him sleuthing on and around Capitol Hill, including dirty lobbying, after suspiciously well-housed nobody Martha Craig is found murdered and recovering alcoholic Keppner was drugged and robbed on the street, believing he was framed clumsily and discovering if it all ties in to a legislature vote on a cannery in Maine...",

They all dine with others including son Barry Bristol, director Marc Faber and banker Si Parrish, the principal investor. On the way home, Pati is shot in the spine by street mugger Manny Farkus, who gets a fatal bullet from Barry. To reluctant Barry's surprise, the show isn't canceled but LA star Lonnie Valerian takes recovering Pati's part. NYPD Detective Sergeant Moreno didn't feel like investigating further, but Jessica does dig into past and present of the Bristol family, the show people, the mugger who she recognizes as unemployed actor Morley Farmer and some New York street witnesses.",

Next there is a revolt, which takes Jessica hostage but is ill-prepared: even the demands are a matter for debate. Jessica is now asked to investigate, and while she digs into malpractices apparently involving warden Gates, who has political ambition, and conflicts involving staff as well as prisoners, another staff member is killed.

Every evening an Indian ghost costume wearer sings on a cliff, till Armstrong's guards climb up scare him off, but on Jessica's second night Gideon's young wife Cynthia shoots at him and local Navajo Indian guide Raymond Two Crows -already found suspiciously uninformed about Pre-Columbian civilizations- falls to his death, although not hit by her bullet. After Jessica digs up a golden prayer stick, Seth finds Raymond actually died earlier of drowning. More gold is found, Gideon is determined to keep the news from spreading, according to his wife so he can buy the land first. Raymond's belongings inspire Jessica to unmasks several scammers.",

When he checks out the competition during breakfast and sees the owner Floyd Nelson row with the pseudo-French chef Alan Dupree, who wanted out of his three year contract by getting fired, there is a mild case of food poisoning and a fatal one: businessman Harrison Fraser III's wife Wilhelmina's best friend Betty Fiddler. While Dr. Seth Hazlitt calls in haughty health inspector Margo Perry and concludes on atropine, Jessica looks into the possibility of murder. The only missing item is a jar of old Mrs. Margo Perry's strawberry preserves, which Amos is allergic to. Jessica unmasks Dupree as a fake cordon bleu and Harrison as Betty Fiddler's adulterous lover, but also doubts the intended victim and ties up more minute observations...",

After Ed is found dead with stab wounds behind the rectory, his dad farmer Bonner uses his considerable clout to weigh on Sheriff Claudell Cox, who assures Jessica Matt is safest in jail, while after pulling a knife on Kelso the lynching-minded rabble assembles outside till Bonner breaks them up; the sheriff admits taking the bloody knife all the way to his home across town where it was found without dumping it in the river makes no sense.

Amos wants to solve this case himself, while Jessica has a manuscript deadline, and gets on great with the widow. Phyllis implores Jessica to find her lover's killer, claiming Henry was ready to leave Connie for her, and tells undertaker Silas Pike she's not romantically interested in him. Clients start asking their investment back from Henry's partner Ned Olson, who fails to find new takers and disapproves of his daughter Christy's relationship with idealist student Stew Bennett. Then Phyllis finds Henry's corpse in her place, but he dies two days after his 'funeral', Connie claims John Doe is a hitchhiker who happened to die from a heart-attack so they staged Henry's death to collect his life insurance. Olson announces the Pheasant Ridge investment fund's $1,000,000 capital was entirely withdrawn by Henry and is missing. Jessica looks very inspired when Stew reports his van stolen, things speed up and she sets a trap...",

When they visit him in the villa where he lives with his sister Rachel and her son Tony and daughter Vanessa from different marriages, Bundy convinces her to stay the night and meet with his lawyers and assures her the security cameras record only images, no sound, and not in bedrooms. Jessica convinces the magazine's broke original publisher Chester Harrison, kept on as figurehead, to put on a fight for its respectability. Then Bundy is shot dead inside, in a camera-dead angle. Detective Lt. Greco just suspects Chester, Jessica and Grady at first the butler but he's really undercover after Bundy's criminal family, then dig deeper. The sister inherits the empire and proves a shark herself, with Vanessa as right-hand. Then Jessica sees trough the killer's alibi.",

  "description": "Jessica goes to New Orleans during the Mardi Gras festival to check on cousin-in-law Calhoun 'Cal' Fletcher as promised to old aunt Mildred. As her hotel was only booked from the next night, she goes straight to Cal's place, but the only man in the Cyrano de Bergerac costume she was told he wears ignores her and storms with drawn sword into a room besides the party hall from where a fight is heard, which leaves a real corpse, Johnny Blaze, with Cal written in blood besides him. NOPD Lt. Edmund Cavette concludes from her eye for murder scene details who Jessica is and explains the Lafitte mansion which Cal inherited is no home but a gambling place. Cavette arrests at his humbler home Cal, who claims he didn't even know what happened there, Cavette knows he was indebted to Blaze, now Cal admits he recently accused Blaze of cheating. Fellow gambler attorney Mitch Payne promises bail tomorrow and considers pleading self-defense; he got Blaze off a murder over cards he probably committed- on Cavette's own son Eric. Jessica untangles more sordid intrigues concerning such matters as Congressman Brad Gardner's IOU's which his rich wife Rosaline tried to buy back, Cal's fiancée Kitty Manette's infidelity, before trapping the killer at a reconstruction...",

When the antiques salesman sort of recognizes his picture as the out of town buyer, Jessica guesses right he may be among Edgar Carmody's family circus which was in town then, and goes snooping there. She in on Neil's rail, as he works there as roustabout under the name Carl Schulman, as Edgar knows. Neil/Carl ran but is arrested after unpopular Hank Sutter, who harassed fellow artist Katie McCallum and bullied her teenage son Charlie, is found dead near, however not trampled by elephants, as none has a blood-stained foot, but beaten to death, like with Charlie's beloved baseball bat which Hank took from the boy. Neil explains why he staged his own death to escape his loveless marriage. Jessica is determined to prove her brother-in-law's innocence, investigating the other circus people, despite the almighty mayor Powers, who overrules the cripple, weak sheriff Lynn Childs, but then Neil confesses and indicates where the murder weapon is...",

  "description": "Retired Navy Dr. Wylie Graham takes a yacht in Cabot Cove near his friend Seth while working in the nearest hospital. Ladiesman David Everett, a former flame of Jessica, is in town to have an 18th century treasure ship found by four young people who entered a tontine: the survivors inherit any deceased member's share. Just after they locate the ship, diver Bill Ainsley had a nearly fatal accident, probably equipment sabotage. Next Alexandra Bell, drunk from the celebratory champagne at Jessica's, is run over after twen partner Coby Russell dropped her off with money for a cab and a phone call; he's arrested, Jessica snoops on- 'Alex' actually died from a blow on the head before the hit. David is a plausible suspect for both acts, and deep in debt with loan-shark Ross Barber and his goon Gregory Small. When Ross Barber bails out, fearing for his safety, Jessica realizes he was the silent investor too and puts up a $10,000 loan. Then a key inspires her a chilling alternative scenario.",

  "description": "Respactable old-fashioned reporter Haskell Drake lands in hospital with a fit after his attack for sensationalist copy-doctoring at tycoon Lamar Bennett, who recently bought the Boston Daily Sentinel from equally conservative Walter Revere, gets him fired on the spot. Jessica tries to reason with Bennett on her old friend Drake's behalf but is told to come back at a celebratory drink in a hotel, where she witnesses Bennet getting a fatal brain hemorrhage while announcing Walter is fired too, which Jessica realizes can be induced by a combination of alcohol and pills, not necessarily taken simultaneously, while Bennet was on sinusitis medication, as she explained to grumpy BPD lieutenant A. Caruso, who concurs from the autopsy it was methaltionide and rather sees her as a suspect because of a rather defamatory recent article on her. When Jessica accepts to 'do some legwork' for an article Haskel plans on Lamar's sordid career she finds the Revere family, which hopes in vain to buy back control of the newspaper, touchy about that subject. Haskel discovers Lamar probably has an illegitimate child, possibly Walter's son Perry's fiancée and newspaper colleague Kay Garrett. Jessica thinks that trough plus an anomaly in Lamar's death's reporting.",

  "description": "In Part 2 of a crossover story with \"Magnum, P.I.\" (both episodes are shown on the \"Murder\" DVD, although not consecutively), Magnum has shot it out with a hired gunman at a party, killing him. Magnum claims the thug had fired several shots at him, including one just before Magnum returned fire. But the police can't find the gunman's weapon, and furthermore he was shot in the back. An overzealous police captain calls it murder one (huh?) and throws Magnum into the cooler pending trial. Jessica searches the crime scene and finds a shell casing which doesn't match Magnum's gun, fitting Magnum's theory. A horrified Higgins realizes that a gun similar to Magnum's -- and with a silencer, at that -- stolen from Robin Masters' collection could well be the murder weapon. The police captain won't give up, and puts out a fugitive warrant on Magnum when a second murder occurs in the same fashion as the first.",

On opening night, something scares Maggie out of performing, and her understudy Barbara Bennington is killed by cyanide poisoning of her red wine on stage. Local chief of police Merton P. Drock, who plays the butler, never solved a real murder, but trusts Jessica will provide him with the 'script', yet keeps on making precipitous conclusions and accusations as the links appear with the breaking off of the productions 30 years ago, when Maggie took a year off by ruse, as now appears to give birth in secret, plausibly to fake reporter T.J. Holt. Julian prevents a second cyanide killing which would murder Maggie. Who knew and resented what exactly?",

Walking home after an embarrassing saber fight in a pub with Nate, Dorian is run down by the disguised headless horseman he always assumes to be Nate, on his black stallion Gunshot. Sheriff Rankin jails liar Dorian after Nate's decapitated corpse is found nearby, clumsily redressed as the horseman. Jessica sifts two plots from secrets and motives, involving an anonymous school funds embezzlement note, the secret society of mischievous schoolboys Todd Carrier, Robert and Brendan and a past crime...",

  "description": "Mack Howard and Murray Gruen were a celebrated comical duo but party in anger. Murray's daughter Corey brings their friend Jessica along to his own Hiawatha lodge for her and Mack's son Kip Howard's engagement dinner. Murray however makes a scene, claiming Mack stole a fortune in royalties on videos of the duo, denied by Mack and his agent who claims there is no profit. Then Murray is stabbed in the back and suggests he only saw a color, that of Mack's robe. Later Murray's agent Phil Rinker is found hanging in the store-room, suicide according to a note apparently in his hand-writing. The sheriff being sick, his only deputy, local youngster Wylie B. Ledbetter, now proud Acting Police Chief, is delighted as a mystery fan to have Jessica coach his forensics and interviews, but startled when she proves by measurements it must have been a murder, staged as suicide. Jessica next concludes from a peephole the stabbing was a separate mischief, then proves it by setting a trap for Phil's killer...",

He likes the work and is very busy and working long hours, even if there is supposedly a ghost in the building. He returns to the office late one evening and finds his boss, Ralph Whitman, dead. To top it off, there's also an IRS auditor sniffing around looking into one of the firm's investment funds, Neptune Ventures. Grady becomes the prime suspect in the case but Jessica works with police Lt. Timothy Hanratty. She soon learns that Whitman's wife visited him at the office on the evening he died. Then there's the supposed ghost in the building which is more than just people's overactive imagination. Jessica sorts it all out.",

Shortly after they go trough Jim's effects Harry storms out after seeing a ciphered reference, but is killed and left by the road, plundered even to his boots. State police captain Ernest Lenko confirms his raids and corruption investigations always failed because legal procedure forces him to inform the sheriff's office. Jessica thinks trough everything, especially relating to Jim's effects, and after being run off the road while accepting a ride from councilman David Carroll, probably intentionally not killed, just badly bruised, Yates's respectable opponent in the spring mayoral election, sets a trap...",

Their son Rob Wilson became a cop hoping to help his father, now puts all his experience at her disposal. While she, Rob and the now retired police Lt.

  "description": "Jessica is recording one of her murder stories on a tape for the blind in the Red River Studios at night, when director Randy Witworth allows it as a favor to producer Greg Dalton, whom he blinded in a car accident. During one of a recent series of mysterious power cuts interrupting recording sessions, Randy is fatally stabbed in the back with a steak-knife from the Dalton kitchen. Police lieutenant Faraday considers mystery writing a harmless hobby for useless women, real sleuthing man's work, Jessica's attention for a spilled bottle of expensive nail-polish just too much. Still she manages to follow and inspire the investigation, convinced Greg was framed. Randy was worrying about bootleg tapes risking to nullify his rising star Stoney Carmichael's contract, wondering if recording technicians Al Parker and/or Earl Tuchman were accomplices. His widow Margaret is hardly grieving, but already doing business with Carl Anglin, who immediately pulls the plug on the mystery tapes...",

They were forced off the road by an erratic driver coming in the opposite direction and the driver of the sports car was seriously injured. Durbin went off to find help and when he returned, he found the driver dead and later learns there is $100,000 in bearer bonds missing. He's now returned seeking to find the killer and thief.

Nationally reputed Attorney Oliver Quayle refuses to acknowledge arson as murder mode; instead he fights the evidence, claiming it could be an accident, despite convincing indications she was even killed by a blow on the head before the fire. The couple was heard to fight over a nasty divorce. Jessica can't resist to do her own investigation, even questioning witnesses like the ex-con plumber, and snooping in the motel where Jim would have an alibi, staying with mistress Monica Blane, who seems to have disappeared. Instead of appreciating her help, the haughty lawyer starts discrediting her in court, referring to a allegedly stolen book plot, psychiatric history and even arrested relatives, none of which was ever convicted. Yet Jessica keeps sleuthing, unearths how Jim -who hurt his cause by silence- eloped with the ex-con showgirl and blackmail was paid by socialite, overbearing mother Judith Harlan, and gets help from Quayle's assistant Barnaby checking on the identification of the corps and dealing with P.I. Rudy Plansky, and a missing broach...",

  "description": "Jessica visits her niece Carrie Palmer's husband Leonard Palmer, who actually forgot his own anniversary date, being an obsessively comets-devoted astronomy researcher at the Astro-Physics Institute where director Russell Armstrong and high-profile, high-maintenance careerist scientist Dr. Thor Lundquist insist they attend the reception they hold to land a Defense contract Leonard disapproves of. That night Leonard is seen rushing out without signing out or closing up his computer-programmed telescope, which is manually pointed at a 30 miles away vacation house owned by Armstrong, focused at the corps in it of Drake Eaton, the shot 'close employee' of influential arms press diva Madeline DeHaven. The house was lend to Leonard's daughter Carrie Palmer, who admits she had an affair with Drake. Jessica accepts to ghostwrite a book for investigating police sergeant Kettler to get access to all data, while Leonard is fired to avoid image damage. Conflicting statements from Leonard and Carrie make them the obvious suspects, yet Jessica suddenly concentrates on the programming of the telescope.",

When the Silverville Museum burns, mysterious Sheriff Keeyani appears to get word from the spirits that it was arson, but Jessica realizes he is covering standard police procedure with a show. Max is killed, and it may have been related to treasure missing from an 1898 holdup.",

  "description": "Seth's old friend, actor David North, returns to Cabot Cove to try out a play in the local playhouse. At auditions for the minor roles, Lyman Taggart gives a terrible reading but is convinced the director and North are out to get him. At dinner that night, Taggart shows up again and threatens North. Meanwhile, North's former manager Eric Benderson shows up and moves in. As Seth tries to reassure a hard-drinking North, Taggart tries to enlist Jessica's help to get him in the play, and threatens her when she brushes him off. When Taggart crashes a cast party, Benderson throws him out. Later, Seth finds Benderson injured in the theater, and he later dies. Taggart comes out of a room at the Lighthouse Motel, and as Sheriff Metzger chases him, Jessica notices the motel room is burning. Jessica thinks North might be in danger and they rush to his hotel, where they smell gas and Metzger pulls an unconscious North out of his room. Jessica and Seth think it was an attempted suicide. Jessica comes to the theater to catch the conscience of the murderer with new pages to the play.",

Fraser has not shared his company problems with girlfriend Eve Simpson. When Riddett quits, he is found dead on his boat before he can warn Sheriff Metzger. Fraser's only hope for a big order to revive his company is a subsurface monitoring device that isn't functional yet. Financial adviser Carl Ward discovers the illegal sales and demands a piece of the pie or he'll go to the feds. Shortly thereafter, Ward is found dead on Fraser's company boat. It's up to Jessica to put the pieces together and identify the murderer.",

When she applies for a job with stockbroker Ethan Stevens, she gives Jessica as a references and manipulates her answering machine to have Stevens call for her for the reference. Needless to say, Dana gives herself a very good one seeing as Jessica, who had caught her out in a lie, wouldn't likely do so. When Dana is arrested for murdering Stevens - she's found unconscious just a few feet from his body with the gun in her hand - apparently having been knocked out in a struggle. Jessica isn't sure what to make of it all but Dana's lawyer, Vincent Polasky, is convinced she is innocent. When it turns out that Stevens had been involved in insider trading, it makes the likelihood of someone else being responsible for the crime far more likely.",

Out on a date, Paula found him dead in the front seat of his car after which she was knocked unconscious. Sgt. Vince Lofton feels somewhat responsible for Bondy's death, a new recruit to his squad who was there to help identify a crooked cop on his team.

  "description": "Jessica Fletcher has finally accepted House of Dunbar tycoon Brian's wife Emma Soon Dunbar's invitation to visit Hong Kong; while she's admiring Burmese jade, her host gets kidnapped, asking a $200,000 cash ransom. Police Insp. McLaughlin suggests the ransom will probably be quickly paid and insure a release, it's almost routine in the last years before the PRC's takeover, and so it happens. Unlike Emma, Brian is inclined to believe it was just another move by his merger-candidate Kai Kuan, whose son David is actually dating Brian's daughter April Dunbar, a forbidden love. Dunbar-executive Mark Tower, who was found out selling goods supposedly destroyed in a warehouse fire to Shangai by womens apparel-division head Louise Walton, offers his services to the Kuans. Even though the merger talks look like a dead-end, the sumptuous 110th Dunbars anniversary banquet goes on with the Kuans for appearances sake, serving a century egg- which kills Brian by cyanide concentrate, some of which is found in firm heir Emma's ceramics studio...",

  "description": "Jessica helps her friend Margaret Johnson and preservation committee president Carol Collins fight against a New York development project which would cause a historical building, where Ernest Hemingway, author of For Whom the Bell Tolls (hence the title), once had an apartment, to be torn down if the last adjoining building is sold to them, but Nolan Walsh holds out with his pubs lease, even throws developer Eugene Gillrich out after promises and threats quite violently in public. Eugene and his wife Lee are desperate to save the project, while his brother and partner Walter wants to consider an alternate site; Eugene secretly romances Carol Collins. Then Walter is found shot dead at Eugene's desk, presumably Eugene was the target. NYPD Lieutenant Artie Gelber and Detective Henderson examine, and arrest Margaret after finding her fingerprints in the office. Jessica gives her an alibi, though not foolproof, and finds evidence Walter's body was moved, so he was the intended victim, and indeed the bullet is in Eugene's office. Jessica notices Carol ordered her usual drink at Nolan's pub, so she probably knew Eugene in advance, unlike her claim. Improbable mail gives Jessica a clue the 87 year-old is deceased; her heiress, a nurse, wanted to keep the apartment and inspires Jessica about a parking matter, the key to the murder plot...",

  "description": "Two teenagers making out in the cemetery get the scare of their lives when a man crawls out of a grave. Jessica's house needs electric and plumbing repairs, but her handyman Charles Wetherby is called away to her anger by grumpy rich client Lawrence Baker who recently moved into the mansion Borbey House, a huge contract. Dr. Howard Sorenson, the visiting grave riser, congratulates Jessica in the library on her book research on sepulchers, in his occult field of research. Jessica's assistant Molly Holt's boyfriend Dave Perrin keeps looking for his sister Laurel who's missing since 18 months. Another nightly teenage couple is scared to death when they find- in daylight, just an mannequin arm. Wetherby cancels Jessica's repairs after Baker agreed to structural work on a wall, doubling the restoration contract price. Molly's dad, a local shopkeeper, refuses to deal with Baker after finding out nobody knows about him and he only pays cash. Lauren's corps is found on a boat. Dr. Howard Sorenson is caught snooping in Baker's place, and reacts like a vampire killer; next Sheriff Mort Metzger and Jessica are called to Baker's body in Borbey House, murdered with a wooden stake, but not the ash-wood required according to vampire literature. Sorenson reports he found William Borbey's grave was empty; the name Borbey is the Hungarian equivalent of Baker; Sorenson points out Baker never left in daylight, kept no mirrors and may thus still be an undead vampire. Baker's butler Peter Jatich's fingerprints match an ex-Stasi. Jessica figures out how everything ties together.",

The test version has grave program flaws, which may sink the firm by missing a nearby press presentation deadline- Jessica promises to rewrite the script so the failing character is no longer needed. Two partners secretly go to Redwood Concepts where James Lindstrom tells its CEO John/Charles Crowe he demands a bonus for dealing with him now he knows about his criminal past and name change, while his partner David Salt promises 'another solution'. It works, but programing out a confusing set of pointless doors would take too long. During the reception Michael gets called by his P.I., Dan Porter, and confronts James about his contacting Crowe, who is there too; shortly after James' corps is discovered, presumably found out stealing essential source codes. Michael openly suspects Crowe. Investigating police Sergeant Ignacio Delcanto suspects a professional murder and arrests Michael because his finger prints where found on the murder weapon, Lindstrom's own gun. Jessica contacts Porter, having heard his name, and suggests he extorted a small fortune for withholding from Michael David Salt's involvement. Alex and Jessica hack James' computer, which inspires Jessica to set up the real murderer...",

  "description": "Jessica visits horse trainer Matt Cleveland on Wally Hampton's stud ranch in Virginia's Blue Mountains, where everybody is elated about the prospects for their promising racehorse Swift Prince. Matt is clobbered down and Jessica finds a mysterious syringe, but it's a stimulant injected in Prince, three days before a major race, so unlikely still to be detected even if it makes him win. Meanwhile Catherine Noble's neighboring ranch is financially troubled, so daughter Tracey Noble can't get a grand wedding, and their partner, Lloyd Mentone, schemes with the Hamptons assistant trainer -who is fired by Matt- while insisting Prince shouldn't race with a not perfectly healed injury as his leg could be permanently hurt. Matt tells Jessica a video cassette he just received could help take 3 seconds off Prince's time, and shortly after has a fatal car accident, or is it murder? Now rancher son Paul Hampton, a banker, pulls the plug at his deal with Loyd, and calls off the wedding with Tracy 'which was only a match between stud ranches'. Jessica now solves the horse mystery and Matt's murder.",

Cousin Ambrose Griffith was about to take over management from Fionas son Sean and move the site too far for many villagers to keep the only jobs in the region. Elder son Patrick Griffith, who was away over ten years fleeing his unfair father, is furious, and has an affair. Ambrose is found murdered in Father Timothy's church. Jessica also believes the old cripple local poet William Mahaffy that Richards fall from the belfry was no accident and the crazy Una O'Reilly who puts flowers on his grave witnessed something. Sgt. Terence Boyle is clearly not up to examining murder cases, but Jessica does figure out how both murders fit together.",

Jessica came home for the annual rummage sale she's in charge of this time, but her New York accountant warned her financial situation requires an audit and local accountant Sam Bennett didn't even answer- he's gambling at Lou Keramides' clandestine casino; the sheriff gets the judge to sign a search-warrant for his restaurant, where Jessica and Dr. Seth Hazlitt insist to talk to him but a tip-off allowed him to clean it in time, again. Deputy Ethan Loomis has an affair with Sam's in-living daughter Candace Bennett and is surprised by Sam in his patrol car. Mort shows Jessica anonymous threatening letters telling him to return to New York. Dr. Seth Hazlitt found his quarterly mutual fund purchases were neglected by Sam, whose wife Laura also learns about the complaints. Ethan gets paid for tipping off Keramides. College drop-out Chad Macinoy, the son of local gazette editor Irene Macinoy, is back in town from Philadelphia, and still in love with Candance, who doesn't want him back; her parents throw him out, under gun-threat from Sam and Ethan, who gladly arrests his rival. The next morning Ethan is shot while driving the sheriff's car and dies. Jessica realizes the killer must have been able to recognize the driver, so Mort probably wasn't the target. Jessica now checks out the 'private game room' to tell Kermaides she suspects him and gets a covert threat not to insist. Deputy Andy Broom confirms he suspected Ethan tipped the casino. The sheriff arrests Sam Bennett, having found in his house a recently fired hunting gun of the killer's caliber; Jessica believes he's only guilty of gambling with clients' money and suddenly realizes an inconspicuous clue...",

  "description": "Dave Novaro claims Jessica's book \"The Uncaught\" is a thinly disguised version of the murder of his wife Janet (whose mother died of grief six months later), except that he was acquitted in court -albeit merely for lack of evidence- five years ago, not 'his character' in 'her version', so he demands millions as compensation for damages to business, health and marriage. His wife Iris Novaro complains to him this makes him absent, while she tells her lover Rick Konig she couldn't bring herself to tell him about them at such a time of stress. To Jessica's surprise, NYPD Lt. Artie Gelber Artie confirms the murders really are surprisingly similar, even in some details, and there was enough publicity so she could have known. Dave's daughter Rachel Novaro, a lawyer, also wants the book redrawn, while her grandpa Norman Trent believes Dave did murder her mother. When Iris publicly accuses Jessica of ruining her marriage to Dave, who married her, his former secretary, Jessica's publisher Ted Hartley asks her to consider a settlement to avoid the costs of a high-profile trial. When Novaro's assistant Neil Fraser warns Dave his business is about to falter under the publicity costs, he reads the book and calls Jessica, suggesting he may redraw his lawsuit as it inspired him who really would have murdered his wife; shortly after he is clobbered to death with a walking cane. Rachel persists with the lawsuit; Jessica asks her about the last passage Dave read, according to his fingerprints, and notices she has a past copy of her mother's diamond necklace which Dave used to cover up pawning the real one. Iris tells Rick off 'because he was only after the money' when he sounds disappointed Rachel is the sole heir. Artie arrests Norman Trent who was seen by a bag lady at the shop where his fingerprints where abundant, even admits he wanted Dave dead for murdering his daughter; Jessica doesn't' buy it as it would alienate Rachel and investigates her own theory...",

  "description": "Jessica comes to the rescue of her friend, actress Glenda Highsmith, who is mounting a play in Martin Kramer's London theater based on a Fletcher-mystery in a defective adaptation by the in principle uncooperative dramatist Mae Shaughnessy with her younger house-mate Brett Dillon. Jessica and others get strange calls from Empire magazine reporter Malcolm Brooker about an affair between Glenda and John Camden, the 17th earl Glenhaven. The actors have their own bothers- waning glory Lawson Childress is drinking a bit much, worrying about Glenda; rising start Franklin Smith fears he is to be replaced and his girlfriend Sally Briggs is told it would take her pleasing Kramer more intimately the she's prepared to do. Director Peter Drew tells Jessica Glenda can't concentrate because of Kramer who is called by phone to the props basement and stabbed to death. Stage manager Oliver Hopkins finds him; Scotland Yard's Detective Chief Inspector Ellen Jarvis investigates. Her friend tells Jessica and Glenda confirms her the earl Glenhaven is actual her former youth love, then a grenadier, now dying and the unknowing father of Brett, who she gave up for adoption. Jarvis says Brooker is no reporter but just a 'grifter' (petty crook) and paid by Kramer; he tells Jessica he saw a blond woman go in after Martin, wearing a white raincoat like Glenda in the play, but ran from the police. Glenda is arrested and admits she was there, only in another raincoat. The disappearance of the white raincoat from props inspires Jessica to solve the murder ...",

  "description": "Jessica flies to Indian territory in British Columbia (Canada) and gets stuck because of plane trouble in Dominion, a town near Hobart Creek, where the Aurora Hills Mining Company is denied passage by armed natives, despite a contract signed by the territorial government, till old Joe Quill convinces them to wait a few days for legal action, which comes in the person of Jessica's locally born co-passenger Peter Henderson, a cynical realist, who warns Joe's grandson, nature-drawing artist George Quill, to stop using arms. Mine executive Rick Shipley and another miner rough up George till they notice Jessica approaching; he tells her to forget about it as the police never believes an Indian; meanwhile Henderson goes out with police Sgt. Hilda Dupont. Shipley warns Joey to call off George before it gets really dangerous, but is blackmailed himself by retired RCMP cop Hamish McPherson, also flown in with Jessica, who recognized him as escaped Mountie-killing bank robber Nicholas Jensen Davis; he is killed by dynamite, according to Shipley the sticks stolen from the mine by George, under the bridge where he would have been paid and drove to in the mining company truck Shipley lend him. George is arrested, but Jessica doesn't believe Shipley was the target, even after the stolen dynamite case with three sticks missing is found hidden in George's home. Next Shipley is found dead by bullet, apparently suicide, but only two hours after he booked a flight. Jessica comes up with a surprising theory and proves it.",

  "description": "Boston, 1974- a security guard is shot when trying to stop three robbers get away, the very next moment the police arrests them. Present (1990s), schoolboy Jimmy Taylor who works as part-time busboy overhears a man who did 20 years of jail demand Julia Harris to get paid for not having her friend Stanley put away for life. Sheriff Mort Metzger got many reports on a prowler, but all descriptions are contradictory. Dr. Seth Hazlitt remarks local computer store owner Evan Rafferty is particularly grumpy, perhaps because he doesn't want his son Will to start a boating business and thus refuses to cosign; Evan tells Julia Harris his property is not for sale, whatever her company bids; she suggests to Will, who also told her about his dad's past, a Boston bank which might co-finance his project, he gratefully invites her for dinner. Shortly after he examined the mysterious ex-con, Seth is missing, his office ransacked, and there is a blood stain, his type. Based on a robot-photo of the presumed prowler, the sheriff finds the man -our ex-con- was using various false names; Jessica believes Jimmy lied not to recognize him; the fingerprints in Seth's office belong to Leo David Fender. A male body is spotted in the woods- it's Leo's; Seth is around all-right, he just made a distant medical house-call, and recognizes Leo as a recent patient. After a talk with Jimmy, who realizes Evan was the only one in town who went all the way to Boston to hear a symphony orchestra, Evan decides to move in a hurry, saying to his fiancée, Jimmy's mother Marion Taylor, his past has caught up with him. From Leo's police file Jessica notices the names of his accomplices and starts figuring out some links just in time...",

  "description": "At Houston space control for research, Jessica overhears Sam Mercer promise NASA's LG computers order, essential for the IT firm, is on its way, but the truck gets robbed by masked men on the open road in plain daylight. Her friend and host Wayne Platte, the truck driver, got hurt, and the firm was in bad enough shape, now suppliers demand immediate payment and insurance considers them a bad risk. His son Rob Platte, a college drop-out who works in the roadhouse, seems only interested in country singing, which doesn't bring in good money. Roadhouse owner Willie Greenwood is furious her accomplice Randy Jinks, waitress Cindy Warrick's ex, could have killed Wayne. Randy and Rob, Cindy's lover who never told his dad about her, fight till Willie pulls them apart to avoid damages. Randy haggles about the looted computers; Willie reminds Wayne's secretary Meg Thomas her next debt payment is due. Ex-con Lance Taggart drops in at Willie's; she won't put him up but he follows Randy, gets him talking and makes her cut him in for 10% to keep him silent. Sheriff Jim Monday suspects Wayne hijacked his own truck to ransom the computers which are of little use except for NASA. When Wayne disapproves of Rob's proposal to Cindy, he quits as driver too. Wayne hurts his arm badly changing a truck tire and is ready to close shop, but Rob returns. Randy is run over by a truck at night after stepping out of his pickup truck; a Platte name tag from the truck Rob drove is found there- the sheriff arrests Rob. Jessica snoops at the local electronics shop after noticing a pickup with possible camouflage for the stolen computers, makes the owner betray himself as a fence, but he claims the computers were rubbish, impossible to sell even as parts. Then Jessica finds out the truck mileage was doctored so someone else could have driven Rob's truck...",

Her guardian and manager Byron Tocoski is impossibly demanding on everyone, even quick to fire professionals; he is startled by the suspicious arrival of Leslie's dad Hank Walden (the has-been clarinetist) who walked out on her ten years ago and came to nothing. Byron, watched by Hank from outside, tells Leslie, who approaches legal majority, he arranged for them to be married in Munich next October. Jessica finds Leslie on her doorstep in tears, Byron refuses to take notice of her. Vanessa Cross, Byron's ex but still his assistant, informs Hank about Byron's plans. Two businessmen have secret dealings about a fat recording contract Byron made, but to be signed in Leslie's name, so it can still be altered. Next morning Byron is found dead at the piano, shot, apparently through the open window. Lt. Peter DiMartini arrests Hank, who was seen outside again, from where he could have shot. Solly Prinze, the jazz musician closest to Leslie, put her up in tears after she came from Jessica, but when he went out for takeaway found her gone, and turns to Jessica, who is also intrigued by the anonymous composition Byron was playing, which contains a musical oddity...",

  "description": "Before she goes to the Cabot Cove carnival with Seth, Jessica notices some jewelry is missing- she was burglarized. Sheriff Mort Metzger gets reports from other victims but is most surprised after 22 years to meet Joanna Sims again, a college girlfriend who ran off with then jock Don Sims; she's now the traveling carnival's assistant manager. Jessica and Seth are surprised to hear from Don's co-owner Carl Dormer that the carnival brought very little money in despite good attendance, according to him people just didn't spend money, but young local grocer Richard Binyon even spends $100 as thank-you for great sales. Juggler Nicodemus 'Nicky' Newton accepts someone's order to break in and look at the carnival's books. Toby Grant, who works as the roustabout for a year to finance going to college, meets up with local volunteer Lisa Farrel, who gives Jessica a tally copy confirming the income. Joanna surprises Nicky going through Dormer's desk in his trailer, according to him looking for his knife-throwing \"victim\"'s partner's engagement ring, but thinks they are in cahoots. Richard and Seth are picked from the audience as reluctant volunteers for magician Dormer's pickpocket act, which embarrassingly includes some of their cloths. Lisa feels for Toby, who was publicly chewed at by Dormer, and agrees to meet up after the show closes at night; in stead she witnesses a masked man stab Dormer and runs. Joanna finds the corpse on a ride. When Mort tells Joanna Don has an inheritance motive, she tells she saw Nick, who refuses to give his alibi, claiming to have taken on oath not to tell, but after a tip from Carmen she saw Nick talking with a Lighthouse Motel guest they identify him- it's Sherman Hastings from the IRS, who asked Nick's help to investigate black bookkeeping. Jessica sees that Don watched Toby telling her Lisa refuses to see him, probably fearing he might be the masked killer, and races away; Mort arrests Joanna, thinking they murdered Carl after finding out his scam. Jessica believes the couple's denial, as Don, who is soon apprehended, couldn't be the burglar and the murderer used a stolen antique knife, then realizes the significance of something resembling a wallet...",

  "description": "In London, blackmailer Alexander Sandsby demands his half but gets a blow on the head from Jeffrey Caldwell and perishes in arson. Cabot Cove is preparing for its annual Joshua Peabody day, this time with a TV documentary production; Jessica is reading the text, written by Bostonian hot-shot director Richard Hawkes, who won an Emmy 8 years ago, with a few historical corrections by her own hand. Jessica brings an ideal period prop, a music box, for repairs to clockmaker Thomas Godfrey, who finds the mechanism is jammed by a letter from George Washington dated September 12, 1780, calling the local hero a traitor who accepted enemy payment to cowardly surrender and threatening him with court-martial. Peabody's descendant Edith fails to convince Jessica and Seth to destroy it, raging it ruins everything for her family and the whole town; experts authenticate it's from the time of the Revolution, but if it's real why did Joshua keep it, and if not, who made such a fine forgery and why? Hawkes refuses to take it on board until the university takes its final position, so producer Bob Kendall worries as they run heavily over budget. Edith is shocked to find someone gave the Peabody statue a noose and a sign 'traitor'. The annual reenactment of the Battle of Cabot Cove goes on, despite a bolting horse, but Hawkes refuses to wait for such time-consuming things as reloading. Producer Bob Kendall tells Hawks the studio has chosen another director; local production assistant Louise Peabody quits with him. Jessica gets a lesson in recording and editing technique from Scott Patterson, notably synchronizing picture and sound. Edith apologizes to Jessica, but Mort reports the letter was on a paper type used by George Washington and she runs off. Then there's a fire at the movie company's office; new director Amelia Farnum's corpse lies there, probably killed by a blow on the head; an antique pistol is missing. Sandsby's British killer approaches Hawkes, who is reinstated to finish the film and now wants to focus on the letter, but Jessica reports her idea was right to prove it a clever forgery: it has traces of 20th century mercury pollution. Jeffrey Caldwell is arrested after Scotland Yard confirmed he's a world class forger, denies any part in Sandsby's murder, but admits being hired by him to forge the Washington letter and claims to have seen Farnum's killer: Edith Peabody, under whose car seat the murder weapon is found, without finger prints. Jessica doubts her guilt and finds a very suspicious bit of sound track is missing, then Scott's tape recorder...",

Meanwhile Matt's brother Jeff is running for senator against Matt's son Danny's boss D.A. Randall 'Randy' Thompson. Danny reluctantly works on a dirty Southeast Asian finance investigation involving banker Brett Reynolds -who finances Matt's campaign- and Martin Osborn, to which end financial whiz Joe Yoshanaga just entered the banks service. After his grandmother Rebecca tells Jessica Danny recently had a suspicious diving accident, he has a swim and a masked diver in a motorboat throws shark bait around him- he goes missing. Joe breaks into Reynolds' PC to send his personal files by modem to the abandoned sugar mill, and Jessica finds out that's where Danny's cellular phone is connected; the police find him there holding a gun standing over family gardener Ben Kamaka's corpse; he explains how he survived and thought to be unnoticed. The Kincaid campaign released a video of Randy kissing an Asian girl, but Jessica realizes it's actually his illegitimate Vietnamese daughter. Forensic evidence suggests Matt could be the killer, but there's more apparently insignificant details, which inspire Jessica at Ben's funeral...",

  "description": "Publisher Harry Mordecai, a San Francisco newspaper's new owner, is such a meddler -but doesn't insist with his ideas to make Jessica's new book spicier- that editor John Galloway quits, but accepts to stay on a month. Wall Street reporter Max Charles hears his grumpy colleague Loretta Lee -in fact a passed-on pen name for Claire Hogan-, who runs a very popular letters column, found out his game to write a glowing column about a stock till it rises enough, then cash in and talk in down again. After Loretta had an argument with Harry, a man shoots her in the arm in the lobby while standing next to John and Jessica. SFPD Lt. Evans doesn't make much progress, till he suddenly arrests as -correct- suspect T.D. because of his coat; when John and Jessica go tell her the news, they find her knocked dead at home; John's name is carved in a glass table with Loretta's diamond ring, but the position on her finger means she probably didn't write it. Jessica guesses Max's problem, after journalist Alexis Hill, who was assigned by Harry to write a saucy article about 'stalker victim Loretta, told him she knew about his scam too and excepts his career support. John is formally charged after his prints are found; Jessica guesses however he really was Loretta's ghost writer. When Jessica finds out Loretta had her new hearing aid delivered late by mail-boy Troy Higgins, she makes striking deductions...",

At the museum board of trustees' nomination committee meeting at her place, Jessica seconds nominating not only a fund-raising ideal CEO, as suggested by chairperson Gwen Noble (who gets a call from Roy), but also an anthropology professor. Superintendent Rob MacKenzie comes repair Jessica's TV, worrying he can't even afford a decent present for his girlfriend Susan Constable, who studies nursing. At his shop, where Darlene Farber gets a lesson in diamond cutting from Augie Blumbacher, Barry Noble receives the title jeweler of the year from a singing telegram, which also photographs his safe with a hidden camera.

A month later on Martinique, Melanie Venable asks Jessica whether her boy Hilton has any writing talent, but she hasn't even read his manuscript yet. She's saved by the \"hotel des Deux Perroquets\"'s owner, Lauren Delagre from Cabot Cove, whose teenage son Jeff(rey) -who digs the receptionist Collette- is the repairman, while daddy Maurice plays poker and loses half of the hotel to Graham Farrow. After a phone call from hotel guest Charlie Garrett, Sparling calls a woman in Washington, D.C. it's the Martinique hotel- she checks in as schoolteacher and amateur-writer Norma Willens. Garrett tells Jessica, whom he knew, he was hired by Sparling to find his missing wife Dorie; he bumps into her as a hotel guest, but a burly man soon tells him to stay away from her, the second time using fists; she calls him it's about a stolen fortune and she doesn't want to return; he helps her escape, but a masked sniper kills her. The French police arrests Charlie but Jessica believes his protestation of innocence, finds a stray bullet, witnesses him being roughed up by Farrow's goon after he and Sparling asks each-other for it over the phone and sees the stash where he hid the money is empty, even recognizes the foot print near it as belonging to Norma Willens and yet ...",

The girls decide to take a look the next morning at his friend Terry Deauville's fine, grand home; she considers moving to New York; she calls Sam it's over now he stood her up, and cries loudly after the girls have gone. Impopular wino Sam's daughter Gloria Bryce and her lover Ollie Rudman are happier. Jessica praises Seth's poem 'Ode to Literature'; they hear Sam jell to his bowling teammate to return his saber-saw and deny they'll both be at the game; the sheriff got a report on a break in at that place but nothing of value was stolen. Sam complains to Ron about he state of the saw while he's at poker with the sheriff; the saw electrocutes Sam to death, while standing in water. Miss Medora Finney reports another break-in during Sam's funeral, only her journal was stolen, according to her the key to Sam's murder she blames on Terry Deauville. Forensics confirm Sam's garage was rigged multiply, and finds Terry's fingerprints on some. Medora's diary is found in Terry's place. Ollie is the only one who seems offended by everyone considering Sam is no loss, not even his own family. Back at the mansion, Jessica finds the phone off the hook and Terry hanged, Seth presumes suicide, yet Imogen's bid was already signed, startling Jessica, just as her frock which seems better fitting to go out on a date. Seth is invited by Mort to take Sam's poker seat; Jessica urgently asks him along. Mort verifies Harvey Hoffman, another bowling team member, has Terry's order for the rope, but the signature is forged- Harvey says it's just his scribble to whom he delivered it. Measurements mean Terry couldn't hang herself, the coroner concludes she died before the hanging. The journal, written in initials and grim Apocalypse-language, includes Sam's failed attempt to stop the fire in Al Wallace's pharmacy, but he didn't tell anyone, perhaps because he started it. The bartender recalls Ron Frendly used the pay phone to call Terry; he admits he was at her place, claims nobody was home and spills the beans on Al Wallace's plan to buy a condo together with Sam. Jessica suddenly realizes how both murders connect...",

  "description": "Stuart Murphy, 26, is strangled in a car and dumped in an alley in Buffalo. On his firm Telesales' infomercial-film-set, Tom Powell is not amused to hear the troublesome, expensive star-host Wade Foster is in make-up for a rehearsal for the Hartley Murder of the Month book club. Jessica is one of the authors shown around by Larry Shields before the on-air panel talk, with former glory Matt Matthews and Joellen Waller. Tom's wife Gina first complains about his late hours and a $450 credit card hotel charge he blames on a client staying a day extra, then blocks off Foster's financial desires, while confirming security will be beefed up. NYPD Lieutenant Harry Fogel (who usually works alone) and temporarily reassigned Detective Henderson drop by inquiring about the Murphy case. After the rehearsal, the dining authors get a visit from Arnold Wynn, a fan of all three and former writing class pupil of Matt in Buffalo, who is also one of the extras hired as fake audience. a female extra asks an off-script question; Mathews refuses to honor his contract, saying he won't return the next day, even after a talk with Jessica. Gina threatens to fire Tom and his assistant Sara unless he subscribes new rules. Next day Matt is back, the lunches are mixed-up so it's unclear for whom the post-it is asking to meet a certain Jason Bayer Saxon. When Wade, who worried about his ex, is approached in his dressing room by Arnold about a dodgy coop he's involved in and his $200 is rejected as peanuts as $50,000 is involved, he throws him out by fist; at 10 PM that night, Larry and Sara trip over Arnold's corpse. Henderson finds out Wynn was not in the actors union, and came from Buffalo like Murphy; Jessica notices he signed in just like mysterious Jason Bayer Saxon, and several items are missing from his effects, including a key and medical ID bracelet for quinine allergy she finds by a phone, yet he died of a quinine reaction, so they concludes murder. The police arrests Matthews as he and Arnold had rap sheets, including a bar fight in Buffalo, and glasses with quinine traces and both sets of fingerprints were found. Jessica gets an idea how to link everything...",

  "description": "A year ago a Fabergé egg-thief was shot instead of paid in St.Petersburg. In Miami, Charles Devon was telling Leo Stone he will close his book store, a first; they welcome Jessica to the world book fair, escorted by Marcie Stone Devon. Leo is told outside his attaché-case of money from St.Petersburg is counterfeit, and held liable to pay within two days; Sergei Nemiroff, unknown to Leo, stops him being beaten up, but demands the egg by evening. Jessica and Valerie 'Val' Harris hear her boyfriend Ben Peterson is grumpy still to be working as Hotel magnate and ex-diplomat Victor Roscoe's errand boy while waiting for the scholarship he was promised, her dad James Harris insists the boy is not good enough. Nemiroff fails to get in claiming to be a Russian publisher who forgot his badge, but quickly greets Jessica, who notices he picks up an invoice; she stops him outside, guesses from badge pin marks he's a Russian cop, he admits investigating Leo's black market dealings; her threat to tell the U.S. authorities makes him tell the Fabergé egg and a tsarina's tiara, seen two weeks ago in Miami, were stolen when Leo was seen in St.Petersburg, and Sergei's innocent brother custodian Grigori is to be executed for the theft in 48 hours. Harris refuses the Devons, who hoped he would invest in their extension plans, any repayment delay, threatening to foreclose; they rush off hoping to refinance. Victor Roscoe refuses Leo any more money. Ben's med school scholarship is refused invoking a mere high school prank. Jessica suggest to Marcy that James may want to sink the Devon book company because she dumped him for Charles years ago. Jessica gets Nemiroff out by pretending he was looking for her reading glasses while snooping in James' office, but pulls them while interrogating why he as university alumnus abused his donor's cloud to get Ben's application rejected. Soon after, Valerie Harris finds her dad's body in his decorative pool, drowned unconscious, next to an empty stand Jessica expects to be the egg's in his secret art gallery. Jessica finds a medallion with the initial BP in the pool, Lt. Perez arrest Ben Petersen. Jessica suddenly sees clear and sets a trap for the real killer...",

Jessica and Sally Otterburn arrive in Cairo where even Nasar, the driver awaiting them, who has two years New York cab driver experience, can't prevent a thief getting away with Jessica's bag, mainly containing notes; Sally phones Faris but assures him it's not \"you know what\", just when the Minister of Antiquities pays his museum a surprise visit. Inspector Omar Halim almost immediately investigates the theft. Nasar asks Jessica to help him get a visa to go legally to his fiancée in the US, now courted by a relative. Thorpe's loan shark Trevor Han demands the statue, threatening Vanessa; Bradford shows his lover Maura tickets for Rome. The thief snatches the statue from Sally's room; she comes clean to Jessica, Faris and her former lover, hotel owner Boyd Venton, but they agree to keep the police out of it for now, as the Nefertari was stolen from Faris' museum two years ago in an Italian exposition, later ended up in the New York museum. Vanessa pays Grimes to tell her husband the deal is off although he has the statue, next he tells his old intelligence friend Boyd to take a hike. Jessica fails to fool Halim she recognized Grimes's mug shot. Maura tells Rudy he will regret not paying more then her usual $20,000; he falls dead out of the elevator at Jessica's feet. Halim now demands the full story, also convokes Faris and tells them to stay out of his murder investigation, but Jessica is unstoppable...",

  "description": "In Genoa, rising opera singer Andrea Beaumont wanders in foggy streets, frightened of a voice which scares her saying she will find out before she dies, and drops a scarf which is picked up. Jessica enjoys Stella Knight's opera rehearsal, but director Drew Granger, also Andrea's ex-fiancé, is impossibly moody and cancels dinner. The police reports Andrea was found attacked in the street, but the doctor finds nothing wrong with her, so he just prescribes rest; her husband Jonas Cole arranges for extra security. Genoese Inspector Piero Amato suggests it's all merely a theatrical stunt. When Andrea tells Jonas she's returning to work, she gets a call with another dead threat. Amato now insists they leave her protection to the police- the NYPD has faxed her stalker there, Albert Garmes, was released five weeks earlier but never misses parole there. Jessica witnesses another threat call, in the same voice, now taped; the recording makes Rudolfo 'Rudi' Petrocelli prime suspect; he meanwhile makes a blackmail call. The jealous opera people scheme about contract breeches even more then usual given the extra publicity. During a power cut a prop dagger is drawn, but the wielder scared off before he can cut Andrea. Jessica and Amato know Garmes disappeared ten days ago, but was not seen in Italy. Petrocelli is shot by his intended blackmail-victim, and found by Jonas, who picked up his own gun, but denies to have shot in self-defense, so he's arrested. Drew's contract allows him to leave for New York, as he wanted, because of Petrocelli's death, and he announces to do so. Jessica finds proof the body was dead hours before Jonas entered, and the voice analysis did not match after all: the killer is still out, and Andrea gets another call...",

His research colleague Liz White insists Jessica comes anyway. The firm claims he just completed work on the vaccine. Dr. Stuart Himes and Liz are ignored about safety tests. David Randall finds tests are impossible after the disappearance of crucial cultures and data and is ordered to make the tests work or get the boot. Priscilla Lake schemes about the stock's likely dive. Jessica believes to have seen Max alive in a cab, reports it to NYPD Lt.

As Jessica fears, there's a failed arson attempt on Max's life, which later turns out an accidentally cat-triggered bomb. Pell, an ex-cop, reports to the CEO, who orders the 'loose canon' defused.

Jessica finds the corps of author Fritz Randall, former pupil of and leading expert on Young, apparently suicided by pills as his master once, but suggests to Lt.

Armed only with a glass of champagne, Jessica startles and chases Baretta-wielding illegal Cambodian textile sweetshop worker Kim Huan who attacks Edmond Faragere's life in grief for his wife. Kim waits in her hotel-room, assuring he's glad she prevented his momentary hate to have irreversible consequences but doesn't dare take her advice to turn himself in.

  "description": "There's commotion in Cabot Cove about a rumored plan to build a car plant, Dr. Hazlit allegedly called it a health risk, but actually assures the sheriff not even to know what the project is. Grady Fletcher is phoned by his boss J. Peter Carmody while visiting Jessica, and assures him everything is alright; he reports later Seth is campaigning to save the lighthouse, but nobody knows yet about their bay development project. Everett Buffum is pulled from Carmody's party by his wife Lorna, but refuses to reconsider not leaving her, then is told by the boss to get rid of her now. Denver Martin sneaks into and searches Carmody's hotel room during the development presentation and steals a letter; he's in time to stop Lona pulling a gun, overseen silently by Jessica who turns both over to the sheriff, who must release Lorna as Everett presses no charges but orders her out of town. Seth has a hard time turning his tail, having raved against Carmody, after Grady tells him the project includes a lighthouse restoration. Jessica learns the bank refused Grady's loan application because Carmody' company Colombus Ventures has no credit record at all, but the sheriff accepts Grady's word and some evidence it's legit. The estate agent was refusing to do business till Carmody assures her local businesses will get first crack at leases and her firm becomes their exclusive agent, which change of plans startles Grady. Lorna threatens mistress Toni Shaw to get her and Everett thrown in jail by hitting Colombus Ventures. Martin suggests to Carmody that somehow embezzling his mother induced her fatal heart attack. Lorna is killed driving into the ocean, failing on appointment with the sheriff; evidence of an unexplained detour is enough for Jessica to start snooping, and indeed her seat belt wasn't defective: murder staged as an accident. Grady is depressed after Everett pulls the plug and convinces Carmody to start selling shares to small investors instead- Toni and the boss chuckle after he leaves, it sells great, then Carmody's bunch disappears with the money...",

Even her protégée seems in the spell of the mischievous Prometheus fraternity, lead by silver spoon-boy Colin Forbes. Notably a Cabot Cove fisherman's son is suspected of involvement in a thefts-wave in the area. There is a vicious fight going on for the coveted post of headmaster. Jessica's friend, English professor Harry Matthews, loses against history professor James Ryerson, whose corpse is shortly after found in the faculty office, with a smashed-in skull. Matthews now gets the job, but has no alibi, so he's arrested after the murder weapon was found in his locker.

Louise's boyfriend Jamie Carlson, a Davis cup player, isn't discouraged by her overprotective pa Lane Henderson, but her competitor Francesca Garcia hasn't given up on him.

  "description": "At night hansom Billy Blake escapes the arriving police by a rope from a sky scraper's roof carrying a bloody knife. Jessica chats with hairdresser Jimmy Neiman at Antoinette's and when he's off to a Nancy Rainburn TV demonstration his brand new fiancée, manicure Diane, when NYPD Lieutenant Sam Kriley asks the guest list of the party where museum board member Agnes Frasier, probably because she returned unexpectedly early, was stabbed with her own kitchen knife, wondering if it's the work of the brilliant burglar who struck seven times in as many weeks using keys, capturing priceless family heirlooms. Board colleague Kathy Stafford is relieved Agnes will recover completely. Jessica highly praises would-be novelist Steve Burke's notes while working in the salon to get to know his chosen mystery scenery. Ralph Stafford makes clear Jimmy will not be allowed to chicken out of their still secret plan to launch a salon in his now famous name. Metropole Café terrace waiter Billy gets a call about the bloody knife he barely got away with, saying he had no choice: Agnes carried it, he was lucky it was too dark to be recognized. Ralph assures Kathy he only needs her priceless 1804 silver coin as collateral for a loan to launch Jimmy's salon, in six months to be paid off and Jimmy fired, then buys a fake copy from Hally Simpon. Jessica suggests to Sam the burglar may overhear customers at some place they all go to, Antoinette's beauty parlor fits at least four. Antoinette asks Stevo to drop Nancy's left-behind glasses at her place on his way home and overhears Jimmy waving Dane's warning Ralph is too dangerous do business with. Ralph promises Jimmy's ex Phoebe Campbell a fat managerial contract to spy on him. Kathy sees Ralph leaving his mistress Nancy's place after promising her to get divorced and giving the fake coin as collateral for her $400,000 investment check. Next at Nancy's Steve is knocked down by Billy, who was burglarizing the coin and throws the box besides him; the kid is arrested but released on Jessica's recommendation; Nancy didn't report it stolen to Ralph's relieve but demands alternative collateral. When Billy learns it's a fake, he smells something big and attempts blackmail, but Ralph threatens him with the police. Nancy learns her show will be canceled for poor ratings. Everybody attends Jimmy's send-off party; afterward he finds Ralph stabbed to dead with scissors in the salon, where Jimmy asked him to meet; he carried the coin. Sam and Jessica investigate...",

Laney Sherman Boswell tells her lawyer Terry Folger it's time for her next divorce, it was never a real marriage anyway as they spent only a few hours a year together; Sheriff Milo Pike tells them hubbie Grant Boswell just had a spectacular fatal sports car accident. When Jessica visits Laney in Aspen, Colorado a months later, even the sheriff admits the promising clues probably won't come to a court case, Folger is about to get the 5,000,000 life-insurance paid out, possibly doubled, half goes to his niece Nancy Boswell; the Majority company's executive Olivia Archer hires P.I. Charlie Garrett, known to Jessica but masquerading as stock broker Howard Dietrich, to prove for a percentage there was foul play, so it can spare itself one or both halves. Then Laney is arrested for the murder, after Anthony Pembroke testified having seen her buying the fatal items in the hardware store. Reporter Darman H. Keene is also after the case. Then Garrett is clobbered, while tailing Pembroke, by his murderer; Jessica gets a tip about his past and untangles everything from recent and further relevant past.",

Victim Jim Nash was an intern reporter at the Daily News, a colleague of Tom McCray and Cynthia Broussard (daughter of Emily), who believed the voodoo was just a colorful cover for a turf war over restaurant control. Jim was supposed to pick up Jessica from the airport and help her with some local research on voodoo and crime. She stays with senator Brent Renwyck, whose club is in financial trouble even before it opens, so he took a nasty loan from mobster Frank Roussel. Brent's wealthy bride Emily Broussard's nurse Yvette Dauphin's daughter Priscilla, the club's singer, shows Emily an anonymous letter claiming that Arthur Broussard was both women's father, as confirmed by Yvette, clearly both after a fat share of the considerable estate; Julliard confirms Arthur anonymously paid for Priscilla's music studies. Mobster Roussel's front-man Mal Carter overhears Tom tell the senator he knows all about the dirty money to compensate the squandered Broussard estate in exchange for help with mob money laundering. After he told Roussel that his wife's financial audit because of the inheritance claim will bring everything into the open, the senator is found dead from a heart attack, besides a voodoo doll. NOPD Detective Lietenant Alex Tibideaux, already on the voodoo murders, and Jessica, who got Jim's notes from Tom, investigate...",

The quiet Leverett Boggs is found strangulated at home with a cord just like one Jessica notices to be cut off in the marina. Deputy Broom bought a house from his high school nemesis Berrigan for his bride Patty, but finds expensive hidden costs. Next day Andy finds in Fred's car a roll of the strangulation cord, and after his arrest in Boggs's apartment a letter, indicating he was probably meeting and blackmailing Berrigan, whose wife Meg fiercely defends Fred's innocence. After Fred makes bail, he's knocked on the head and found dead by Andy, who was already suspended...",

Jessica is embarrassed, given her sailing ignorance, to be asked as honorary commodore of the prestigious ocean race. Kimball's presumed skipper (crew chief) Steve Gantry gets cash from him and reports Larkin was difficult. Kimball's ex Anne, Larkin's daughter, now Larkin-man Bill Richards's partner, steps in as captain of the Free Spirit and asks deputy Deputy Andy Broom as skipper. Shortly after he resisted Gantry's attempt to blackmail him into giving him a $50,000 loan, Kimball is found dead from a blow on the head, Anne arrested, causing another replacements parade. Sheriff Mort Metzger and Jessica investigate.",

  "description": "In a plot somewhat reminiscent of \"WKRP in Cincinnati,\" a San Francisco radio-station owner decides to convert the station's classical format to rock and roll. He keeps one announcer who's an expert on classical music, and casts him in a dog-and-pony show where the old guy verbally spars with a young colleague who is an expert on rock ... all this to get a younger audience for the station. The experiment seems to be working fine with audiences, but tensions rise at the station and soon the new program director is disemboweled by a stab wound by his own fireplace poker. With the classical-music person (Jessica's good friend) as the obvious suspect, Jessica must try to find another motive and another suspect for the murder.",
