I watch this show with my daughter, who likes to try to figure out who the murderer is. This one had Joe stumped at first as to the murder weapon, but he went to the right folks for help. I had to chuckle at the first couple of guesses they gave him - he had no idea what they were talking about! Neither did I, for that matter! But as soon as they said the tire iron for a 1972 GM car, that sent his focus in the right direction. And it ended up pretty much as he had first envisioned the crime. I'm glad it wasn't the partner. But that poor guy! He was pretty much murdered, very brutally, for nothing. :( I love Lt. Joe Kenda, but I sure hope he's quit smoking, and that's coming from a former smoker.
