This episode is excellent because it breaks the tired old mold of most Barnaby Jones episodes and gives the viewer a real mystery. It is not immediately obvious who the culprit is. And we are led down a couple of wrong paths with false clues before we finall learn the identity of the real culprit.
Even Barnaby did not solve the mystery until the very end, arriving just in time to save the victim.
