Fine mystery
It is always fun to see Barton Churchill performing. This time he is a retired police investigator who is helping a young cop to solve a very mysterious set of murders.
There are many fine performances in this little gem of a detective story. The ending will be a surprise after all the red herrings are played out.
Certainly a very entertaining 78 minutes. You'll enjoy it.
