Murder She Wrote: A Deadly Judgment
Donald Bain, Jessica Fletcher
Murder in Beantown
Jessica Fletcher is off to Boston to help her eccentric
lawyer friend, Malcolm McLoon, defend a tycoon accused of
fratricide. Her uncanny sleuthing talents will come in
handy when the two old acquaintances dive into the case
with their characteristic vigor. Even so, Jessica
anticipates enough time to take in the charming sights of
New England's historic capital.
But when the defendant's girlfriend--and his only alibi--
is found dead in her apartment, the case takes one more
murderous turn for the worse. Is someone out to make sure
the accused gets convicted? Jessica has her suspicions,
and soon--when the jurors become victims of deadly
accidents--there's even more to ponder. With only her gut
feelings at work for her, Jessica must outwit the
tenacious prosecutor determined to get a guilty verdict.
She must find the real culprit--before the killer finds
her...
