Alleyn has to solve more than one mystery when he finds that, in addition to the murder, an enormously valuable silver chalice has gone missing.

boring! submitted by smgop on June 25, 2015, 5:26pm not my favorite detective story.
Not bad at all. submitted by Tassos on February 25, 2019, 10:18am There are far worse crime shows than this, including MOST of those "made in the USA". Not bad at all.
