The Case of the Cooked Goose

The only reason Nicholas Harlow accompanies his straight-laced brother, Edward, to the Deer Stalker Hotel is to get a glimpse of his childhood idol, Sammy Spade. Once the star of the "Grandpa Goose and Grandma Gander Hour", Sammy has the lead role in the hotel's production of "Eddie and Mary", a comedy based on Edward Hyde and Mary Reilly of Jekyll and Hyde fame. When Sammy drops dead from arsenic poisoning, Nicholas is the unfortunate main suspect. The brothers form an unlikely alliance to search for a killer among the large group of people who are happy Sammy is dead, including one ex-wife, an ambitious understudy, and a front desk receptionist who is either in mourning or suffering from a horrendous case of allergies.
