Synopsis
Sigsbee Manderson is apparently murdered, and Inspector Murch lines up the suspects for interrogation: Manderson's wife, Evelyn; his secretary, who is in love with Evelyn; Manderson's uncle; the butler; and the maid. Murch suspects the secretary but Trent proves that Manderson committed suicide, killing himself in such a way as to cast suspicion on his innocent secretary.
