This story was likely inspired in part by the death of Howard Hughes a few months earlier. At his death, there was a long period where no one knew who would be inheriting his huge fortune...and this was a big news story at the time.
It begins with the death of some guy worth half a billion dollars. Who gets the money is unclear...and a couple guys want to make sure they get at least some of it...which means finding the will and destroying them since they know they were cut out of the will. To do this, they kidnap the woman who likely typed up the dead man's will...but she tries to escape and dies in the process. To cover it up, they move the body and pretend she died there instead. Barnaby Jones gets involved to determine what really happened to this lady.
This is an okay episode. The only thing that annoyed me, and it's very minor, is that Jedidah was dating a woman and they were in love...and like in every other show like that, that means you'll never see her again or hear mention of her after this one episode!
