The murder seems unsolvable. An old lady is brutally murdered, bludgeoned, knifed and strangled, and she had no enemies. As she opened the door for her visitor, she must have known him and known him well. There are no clues at all, no murder weapons, no fingerprints, no hairs or anything, and still detective Morse takes on the case and starts finding clues. Even so, the case seems hopeless as there is nothing but circumstantial evidence, and, as the prosecutor says, it is like playing chess with only pawns. The niece of the murdered lady is shocked at first, but gradually she grows with the dawning of the true story, as the circumstantial evidence keeps amassing, and it is vital to observe, that no criminal ever commits a crime without leaving at least the tiniest shred of a hint at some evidence, from which the truth generally always can be reconstructed and examined in detail. This is an amazing story and a true story at that, and for the niece it became just a beginning for her to start a comprehensive movement to bring justice to relatives of victims to heinous crimes.
