The Argyle family is far from pleased to discover one of its number has been post-humously pardoned for murder â if Jacko Argyle didnât kill his mother, who did? The front door of the family home was lockedâŚ
According to the courts, Jacko Argyle bludgeoned his mother to death with a poker. The sentence was life imprisonment
But when Dr Arthur Calgary turns up a year later with the proof that confirms Jackoâs innocence, he is too late â Jacko died behind bars from a bout of pneumonia.
Worse still, the doctorâs revelations re-open old wounds in the family, increasing the likelihood that the real murderer will strike againâŚ
