Synopsis

When Phillip Briggs is murdered in his bed, the prime suspects are Robert Ames, his partner, Henry Gilson, a major investor in the firm, Reggie Tudor, Mr. Jellipot's clerk, and Mr. Jellipot himself, heir to the Briggs estate. Then Ames disappears, and Briggs' niece accuses Gilson of BEING Ames. Gilson sues the niece, and Jellipot must provide her defense. Can Inspector Combridge help unravel the mystery? Or will this all prove to be...TOO MUCH FOR MR. JELLIPOT?
