#91: The Case of the
Madcap Modiste
Original Airdate: 04/30/60

Summary Edit

From The Perry Mason TV Show Book
A madcap murder puts an end to high-fashion queen Flavia Halliday. Flavia gasps for her last breath after her husband Charles puts a glass of champagne to her lips. "Charles poisoned me" are her dying words to ever faithful companion Leona Durant as she fades away in Leona's arms.

Did Charles and his gorgeous girl friend Hope Sutherland (played by Leslie Parrish) have a motive to poison Flavia? She had made a fool of Charles on national TV and denied him the divorce he had been wanting for so long.

It's a tongue-in-cheek case for Perry.
