As he rides a stair elevator an ax swings across in front of him almost sending him into cardiac arrest. Gunn arrives at the house at the request of Raleigh who explains he only has months to live, then shows Gunn a threatening letter from his nephew, Martin Raleigh, who had previously stolen money from Raleigh and gone to jail. Raleigh wants Martin found and stopped from completing his threat. Raleigh also explains his nephew was an accomplished guitarist. Talking to Raleigh's nurse, Gunn discovers Martin is concerned all his money will be left to Raleigh's assistant. While investigating the musician lead, Gunn gets a phone call in which Martin claims he's going to kill his uncle then himself. Treating the threat seriously Gunn races back to the house only to find Raleigh dead. Gunn continues his search, first locating Martin's rather odd girlfriend who gives Gunn Martin's address. Arriving he finds Martin dead, an apparent suicide. Gunn returns to Raleigh's house and surprises Mr. Collins, Raleigh's assistant. Gunn confronts him and accuses him of killing both men. Collins attacks Gunn. During the fight Collins falls in a letter opener and dies. Written by glen_chapman See less
