There was no doubt the Lampreys were charmers who sported the grand style and didn't have a shilling. But when Lord Charles Lamprey's rich old brother met an untimely end, the question was raised -- were they also coldblooded killers?

Some words by Shakespeare cue Inspector Alleyn in a case with many strutting players and one star -- a murderer.
