While Will is vacationing off the grid with her girlfriend, Holly, Ms. Pentecost is arrested for the murder of Jessup Quincannon. Quincannon is the sicko who has a museum full of memorabilia from famous murders. He threatened to expose a dark secret about Lillian's past in front of a room full of his exclusive club members. Lillian shows up to the event, goes up to his office, and the rest of the guests hear gunshots. She was the only one in the room with him. It looks like an open and shut case, but Will knows her boss would never kill anyone.
The solution was clever if not a bit contrived (not as contrived as pole vaulting over mud to leave footprints, but hey, not everyone can be Erle Stanley Gardner).
