They see a star French skier shot and killed in mid jump, and shortly afterward learn the victim was apparently involved in a counterfeit travelers' check scheme that has taken half a million dollars from his bank.

I notice a resemblance to Double, Double, Oil and Trouble in that the victim in ach s apparently involved in a major fraud
