Unlike the another reviewer I was actually caught off guard till near the end of who was the actual guilty party in this tale of mischief.
It begins at a card game when Larry Benton accuses Mike Granger of cheating. Well, Mike does not take to kind about being called a cheater and pulls a revolver on Larry. A shoving match breaks out and Larry believes that he has killed Mr Granger.
The next day Larry is confronted by another person at the card game named Ben Wallace that is set on blackmailing Larry about the murder. Larry has to steal money from his brother Steve Benton to pay the blackmail money.
It is not long before another person at the card game, Johnny Clay, is murdered. And it just so happens that Steve Benton is wiping off a fire poker when Ben Wallace enters the room. It is not long before Lt Tragg has a murder warrant on Ben and Perry agrees to defend him in court.
This is a unique mystery as you will find that a trick was being played but soon backfires when someone wants more than their cut of the prize. The writers do an great job of giving us many suspects but it will come down, not to a confession, but Perry making sense of the situation. Good watch!
