SYNOPSIS
Clairvoyant Martin Strange is at the centre of a series of mysterious deaths, which begins when his assistant is killed by what seems to be a bolt of lightning. As Maryhill CID investigate, Strange offers help from beyond the grave, when he claims to be in touch with the spirit of none other than Jim Taggart. Will DCI Mike Jardine follow the ghostly clues, or is the spiritualist merely a charlatan who is trying to throw him off the scent?
