In a Mirror, Darkly

A female fashion designer, portrayed by guest star Diana Lynn, reports the loss of her exclusive fall line in a fire. This prompts "The Investigators" to receive an anonymous tip, triggering an inquiry into the designer's activities. Investigator Russ Andrews encounters a frosty reception when he interviews Manon Cuchet, the dressmaker, about the circumstances surrounding the fire. It becomes evident that she is trying to protect her caretaker, Charles Victor, from scrutiny. Later, Andrews meets one of the designer's former models, Georgette, who suggests she has information that could assist his investigation. However, the lead goes cold when she fails to show up for a scheduled meeting with him.
