As they dig deeper, they uncover a web of deceit and betrayal that leads them to suspect everyone, including the star of the play, Ted Wallington, and the author of the show, Peter Fortune. But when Reardon, an actor staying at the Globe Hotel, is accused of being the Fiend, the investigation takes a surprising turn. With the truth still shrouded in mystery, Frank must continue to unravel the tangled threads to uncover the identity of the true killer.
