Well done addition to this long running series, 8 July 2003

WARNING: LIGHT SPOILERS AHEAD

This piece has wonderful historical elements in addition to a well written script. Angela turns in a predictably enjoyable performance as Jessica Fletcher, as well as in the role of Sarah McCullough, her own great aunt.

Phylicia Rashad, in the role of Cassandra Hawkins is both intriguing and firey. That the 2 don't get along based on views of how history should be used/interpreted/shared adds a nice element to this well constructed who-dunnit. That it's an historical murder makes it all the more fascinating to us history buffs.

Phylicia and Angela work very well together in this movie -- well worth watching for Jessica Fletcher fans and History buffs alike!
