At an award ceremony for writers, celebrated author, Bradley Thompson (David Warner) causes quite a stink as not only do his fellow writers despise him for stealing their ideas over the years but he ends up in a confrontations with both Della Street (Barbara Hale) and Ken Malansky (William R. Moses) as his book based on a Perry Mason case led to the death of an innocent man. But when Thompson collapses and dies from poisoning it is Bradley's former wife Martha Robertson (Barbara Babcock) who is charged with the murder. Fortunately Martha has Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) in her corner along with Della and Ken.
A very good Perry Mason mystery that has shades of Agatha Christie. There are good amount of suspects, some colourful like Cindy William's character, and enough suspense towards the end. The twist and turns are really good as well as the chases - William R Moses sure does a lot of running!
