A man lay dead -- A surfeit of Lampreys. |
| Performer |
Starring Jeremy Clyde, Donald Sinden, and John Moffatt. |
| Summary |
A game of "murders" at Sir Hubert Handesley's country house party becomes far too realistic for anyone's liking. First a guest arrives with a dangerously lethal dagger and then, when the gong sounds to announce the start of the game, the victim plays dead with a very convincing manner. In the second, like all good aristocrats, the Lampreys are charming, but penniless--so a visit from the wealthy head of their family is greatly anticipated. However, their Uncle Gabriel isn't persuaded to part with his money, and a row ensues. When a body is found in the lift, leading to the Lamprey's flat, Chief Inspector Alleyn finds a family immersed in hidden secrets and intrigue. |
