"Death in Disguise" is one of the first episodes of the long-running "Midsomer Murders" series starring John Nettles. Since it's an early one, my favorite of his partners, Daniel Casey, is on board as Troy.
No dearth of suspects here. Ian Craigie is the head of a commune, populated by a diverse group of people. The commune concentrates on spiritual matters, though it wasn't started that way. Ian Craigie and Bill Carter founded the place as a scam to divest the wealthy of their money. However, Craigie came to believe in what the commune stood for. The two fight, and Carter falls (or was he pushed) over a staircase and falls to his death.
Barnaby and Troy come on the scene to investigate and meet the residents, former brothel owners, a wealthy young woman about to inherit a fortune and her boyfriend, a young man who can't speak, a woman who communes with the dead, as well as a few others.
When there is another murder, the question is, whodunit? It's not going to be easy to find out.
Very good mystery that takes place in a gorgeous mansion, and Barnaby's family is in this episode, which is always fun.
