Keith Michell as Dennis Stanton takes over the Murder She Wrote episode as
Angela Lansbury narrates the tale about Michell's adventures as an insurance
investigator for Consolidated Casual.
The insured object is a coin dated from 1804 that society heiress Dina Merrill
has and that her son wants her to sell because he's got some deep debts in
deep do-do. First Merrill's gardner is killed when there's an attempt to steal
it and later it's a rich carpet merchant Aharon Ipale done in as well over the
coin.
Of course Dennis Stanton's interest is the coin which is insured for 2 million
dollars. That he helps solve a pair of homicides for the ever unappreciative
Lt. Ken Swofford goes without saying.
Always liked Stanton's character, wish he got a series of his own.
