Did she had to die because she was unwilling ro sell her estate to an oil company?
Archer can't prevent that Pat Reavis - top suspect and former chauffeur of the Slocums -is lynched before he can hand him over to the police. Is it really all about oil ? And why is Mrs. Kilbourne, the beautiful wife of the boss of the oil company, seeking Archer's help.
