Andrew Stevens gives the performance of his career as Janet Margolin's two-timing fiance'. Brenda Vacarro is marvelous as Margolin's sister. This one plays with the formula a bit because we do not see the actual murder of Margolin, just the events before or after so we must wonder with Columbo whether he actually committed the murder or just thought about it, then got framed. And, a few plot twists work very well. This is an "A" entry in the series.
