Bachelor William Harman died in 2008, leaving behind a considerable estate of 90,000 pounds. But as Fraser and Fraser starts hunting down heirs, a mix-up over birth dates suddenly threatens to derail the entire investigation.

Meanwhile, in the heart of Sussex, heir-hunting duo Lord and Lady Teviot are investigating the case of Cecil Higham.

But as the Lord and Lady dig deeper, an extraordinary story emerges.
