Mr. Reeder in Room 13

Mr. Reeder, a bumbling insurance investigator, is called to Room 13 of a hotel to investigate a supposed suicide. However, Reeder soon discovers that the death is actually a murder, and he must use his unique (and often accidental) investigative skills to unmask the killer before they strike again.
