A dead mystery author, a missing chapter, and a seemingly endless suspect list. The sleuthing continues this Sunday at 9pm on WITF TV and the PBS Video app.

The mystery began when author Alan Conway died under suspicious circumstances after turning in his latest Atticus Pünd novel. Plus, the last chapter of his book was missing.

His editor, Susan Ryeland, investigates the missing chapter – and finds herself uncovering secrets related to Alan’s death. Does the last chapter of his book hold the key to solving Alan’s mysterious death?
