About this programme
6/11. The detective sets out for Norfolk when a country publican begs him to help solve a murder - but is disappointed when the innkeeper turns out to be a budding author and the killing fictional. However, he soon has food for thought when a real death occurs - committed by a seemingly ghostly hand. Geraldine Alexander and Ian McCulloch guest star, with David Suchet.
