Jessica Fletcher is in San Francisco and she's there to help serialize her latest mystery novel for Laurence Luckinbill's newspaper. But it has just been taken
over by an Australian media tycoon John Rhys-Davies bearing no small resemblance to Rupert Murdoch. Davies has ideas for everything including
spicing up JB Fletcher's story. As she's not employed by him on a regular basis
she's the only one who really stands up to this overbearing Aussie.
But as to murder, Eileen Brennan who writes an Ann Landers type column is
murdered and in true mystery story fashion the name of the killer on the
underside of a glass table.
Nothing to say about the murder except that as usual the original suspect is
cleared by Angela Lansbury. One thing the murderer and thee original suspect
have in common is that they used pseudonyms for their work. But one is a
thief as well as a murderer.
