- When a famous Rembrandt nude is stolen while it is in transit on a moving elevator, Murdoch, who was present during the theft, finds himself asking how, not who.
- Detective Murdoch investigates the theft of a valuable Rembrandt painting. He attended its unveiling at a lavish reception and saw the painting go on the elevator on the 11th floor and go directly to the first floor where Constables Crabtree and Higgins were waiting for it to arrive. When the doors open, all they find is a dead security officer and no sign of the painting or how it might have been removed. He soon finds the thieves, both dead, but there is no sign of the painting. They were professional thieves from Chicago and Murdoch determines that it is all part of a scheme to sell forgeries of the painting in question. While he tracks down the forger, he's not sure he's tracked down the mastermind behind the scheme.—garykmcd
- After Murdoch and friends attend the public showing of a Rembrandt which 'investor' tycoon James Pendrick and 'curator' wife Sally' bought in Vienna, it's stolen in the elevator of his Toronto-record skyscraper, the security guards fatally stabbed on site or -two- presumed 'missing' but found murdered after hiding the painting and the fake elevator cabin to steal it. William is cued to look for US collectors by Italian art expert Luca Carducci, but soon suspects Sally's protege modern painter Burt Lightman may be her lover and a brilliant forger, yet he gets murdered too. William deduces the mastermind and sets a trap.—KGF Vissers
