Martin/Aldrick

The team looks at the cases of Peter Martin, who died in Brighton aged 52, and Arthur Aldrick, who left an unclaimed estate worth a hefty 350,000 pounds.

Peter Martin died aged just 52 in Brighton. A bit of a loner, even Peter's neighbour knew very little about him. Racing against competitors, the team at Fraser and Fraser is soon piecing together his family history. But the case proves a tough one to crack and as time begins to run out, the investigators begin to worry that their estimation of the value of Peter's estate may prove to be wildly optimistic.

Meanwhile, Hector Birchwood of Celtic Research is delving into the mysterious case of Arthur Aldrick. He died in 2005 aged 85, leaving behind an unclaimed estate worth a hefty 350,000 pounds. A distant heir is discovered, but that's just the beginning of the story. Intrigued, Arthur's heir is soon on the case and as she investigates his wartime record in the intelligence service, it begins to look as if he may have had an important role to play in cracking the Nazi's infamous Enigma code.
