Did a professional hit man kill Charles Finlayson? He's found dead in his car behind his ex-wife Christine Finleyson's house, and there's a strange man who has booked a room at the hotel. A hit man, perhaps? Finleyson has been dead for about two weeks. Christine's brother works at the hotel behind the bar. The mystery man had an appointment to see Guy Sandys, editor of the magazine Midsomer Life. Sandys is also found dead. Suspects galore - he writes scathing restaurant reviews, and the hotel is about to get a rotten one, which could close them down.
It's not over yet, and Barnaby and Jones wonder if the murders are connected at all. Some secrets are uncovered, and, as usual, an event from some years ago serves as a catalyst for the present day. It takes time to sort through it.
This time, Barnaby's wife Joyce gets involved in the case as well.
I liked this episode. With so many seasons, there are some terrible episodes, some excellent ones, and some that are good if not great. This one is good. Just my opinion.
