This three-part whodunit, originally a 1964 British television series, was re-aired in the United States in December 1982. Mobil, as a prominent sponsor of Masterpiece Theatre and Mystery!, often commissioned promotional materials for such broadcasts. The 1982 U.S. airing featured Moira Redmond as Melissa and Peter Barkworth as her husband, Guy Foster. The series follows Guy as he becomes the prime suspect in his wife's murder, unraveling a complex web of deceit and intrigue.
