Good acting and a pretty reasonable plot make for a good episode. I liked the Carol Delaney character. Veteran character actor Ken Lynch gives a good performance as an almost sympathetic character. No Hamilton Burger; the assistant DA is OK. The murderer was a bit too obvious, though the way the murder was done was a nice twist. There is not much use of Della or Paul Drake.
It's based on one of the best PM books by Gardner, one of his early ones. It concerns a young woman who may be the long lost granddaughter of a millionaire, if a certain bishop can be believed. Or is he just an impostor, a crook of some kind?
The book is a lot more complicated than this episode, and they changed some things about the bishop. If you can, read the book.
