Complete story — includes the ending

Cy Durning supposedly dies of a heart attack, but Kitty Winter warns Sherlock, Durning was murdered and he and she are targets. They had worked a London case in which Eli Kotite was convicted of a fatal hit-and-run while driving drunk. Released after four years, his defense lawyer Tom Saunders, the judge, and prosecutor Durning died, supposedly of natural causes. They suspect Kotite hired a hit-man, having been maimed and disabled in prison by resentful inmates, therefore unable to commit murder himself. Durning's body is exhumed and incinerated; the culprit's gray-red hair, indicating a Caucasian. Sherlock draws a sketch from memory of the henchman at Kotite's private club. They discover M.E. Dr. Wilkerson was bribed, insisting Durning died of natural causes. Kotite phones Sherlock, saying he knows the real killer, but Kotite is murdered. FBI agents and soldiers raid the brownstone, led by DIA Agent Anson Gephardt (the red-haired suspect), who specializes in Middle Eastern affairs. Meanwhile, Joan discovers that Kitty has an infant son, Archie.
