Synopsis

Because of her Scorpio star sign, Archer isn't convinced, although Lina soon accepts her offer.

Wycliffe soon makes his presence known as a murder investigation begins, and he quickly learns that several of the creative souls assembled have justifiable reasons for not wanting the police intruding on their private affairs. ...
