- Jessica has to solve two murders to clear the name of her old friend Deputy Andy, who becomes a suspect when a murder weapon is found in his car.
- Manufacturer Fred Berrigan, whose shoe factory in Cabot Cove has problems and scheming involving him, his wife Meg, employees George Parkins and Wendy Arnold and businessman Craig Haber, is nasty, especially to deputy Andy Broom, when nearly arrested by Sheriff Mort Metzger for drunk driving. The quiet Leverett Boggs is found strangulated with a cord just like one Jessica notices to be cut off in the marina. Deputy Broom bought a house from his high school nemesis Berrigan for his bride Patty, but finds expensive hidden costs. Next day, Andy finds a roll of the strangulation cord in Fred's car and, after his arrest, in Boggs's apartment a letter, indicating he was probably meeting and blackmailing Berrigan, whose wife Meg fiercely defends Fred's innocence. After Fred makes bail, he's knocked on the head and found dead by Andy who was already suspended.—KGF Vissers
- Fred Berrigan, a businessman in Cabot Cove, has a longstanding animosity towards Deputy Sheriff Andy Broom, which did not stop Berrigan from selling Andy his old home, which Andy now finds has a lot of hidden problems and expensive defects. One of Berrigan's employees, Leverett Boggs, is found murdered, and evidence of embezzlement discovered on Berrigan's computer. Fred is later found murdered and the weapon planted in the trunk of Andy's car. Jessica Fletcher has to clear Andy and find a cold-blooded killer who has struck twice and may yet again.—R.M. Sieger
