Evan has Claire dead to rights.  But will Claire give up her lying ways and admit defeat, or does she have another card to play?  I hope you enjoy this penultimate chapter in Evan Gold's life.

With Lillian's loss and Eye Patch's escape, there is only one thing for Evan to focus his attention on: Where was Claire Porter the night Gable Silver was gunned down?

What is his wife Katherine doing here!?  If she has Lillian on her person, won't that mean curtains for many people, and all of Evan's hard work will evaporate?  Yes.  Yes, it does.  But is there the possibility that Evan gets out of the jam?  Well, you'll just have to listen in to find out.

Evan Gold, gives up the pearl box he received from the now-deceased train conductor.  If Eye Patch takes the bait, then maybe Evan can wrap this whole mess up and take a lot of bad guys off the street.  But, let's be honest, that's not how these stories go.  We must keep Evan (our hero) in a bind.  But what bind exactly?  Listen in to find out.

Jump back to Ep. 64 for the beginning of Shell Game.

For this 101st episode, we are double-packing the chapters as we round the corner out of Act Two and into Act Three!

Previously on... Evan Gold is a private detective in Athens, Kansas.  His head is swimming after the strange events of the week - his partner is murdered, the widow and the police name him suspect number one in the recent murders, and Evan needs to find the real murderer before he ends up in Leavenworth.

Evan Gold, finally, has all of the liars in the same room and maybe, maybe he can get to the bottom of all the crazy that's been going on in Athens.  Before he can fully wrap things up, he needs to know who killed who and who he can hand over to the DA as the ring leader in this seedy conspiracy.  Who will it be?  Eye Patch? Harold Huber? Claire Porter?
