8/10
Columbo's Jigsaw Mystery.
28 February 2009
A good Columbo yarn and based on one of Ed MacBain's better 87th Precinct Mysteries called Jigsaw. The story revolves around the hunt for the loot from an old bank robbery which went disastrously wrong for the perpetrators. They were killed in a shoot out with the cops but no one knows what they did with the missing proceeds from the heist. Up steps Irving Krutch, years later, with a 'piece' of a photograph (cut jigsaw style) which supposedly shows where the missing cash is stashed! He enlists the help of the law in his quest but is he all he claims to be? Who will find the other pieces first? The cops or the bad guys? Great stuff for Columbophiles.
