The two have been having an affair, and Jenifer has grown tired of secrecy. She gives her lover an ultimatum: divorce his wife or suffer public exposure. Since Alex's mother-in-law controls the symphony, he can't afford either option. He murders Jenifer, staging a suicide. But Lieutenant Columbo isn't convinced, finding more and more evidence that the musician's death was murder. But can he prove that Alex Benedict was involved, especially when an unexpected second suspect is thrown his way...?
