When multimillionaire businessman Jim Gulbrand is murdered on his yacht the CBI are called in. As the investigation proceeds it emerges that Gulbrand had removed ten million dollars from his bank account and there is no sign that he spent it or invested elsewhere. If somebody knew about the money it would provide a powerful motive. Obvious suspects include his ex-wife who clearly wants every single cent she thinks she is owed and his and his fiancée, Dr Brooke Harper, who Jane quickly suspects isn't who she claims to be. There is also the question of the key found round Gulbrand's neck.
This episode was a lot of fun with an interesting central mystery and plenty of funny moments; I particularly liked how Jane decided that Dr Harper is a fraud based on the fact that her writing is legible... the stereotype about doctor's with unreadable writing is clearly widespread! It isn't the first time Jane has come up against somebody not that dissimilar to his former self; that isn't a problem as the scenes between Simon Baker's Jane and Lisa Sheridan's 'Dr Harper' were rather fun. The ending features a nice twist; I certainly didn't see it coming. Overall another enjoyable episode.
