Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar “The Port O Call Matter” Classic Radio Noir

The fog of the San Francisco bay masks a calculated strike against the city's financial heart. Insurance investigator Johnny Dollar tracks a choir of disguised thieves through the industrial fringes of the wharf. A coordinated morning heist nets a fortune for a gang of masked bandits, leaving the local police department scrambling for leads. Johnny Dollar steps into the fray to assist a weary lieutenant, following the cold trail of missing cab drivers used as unwitting getaway pilots. From the murky depths of a bay slough to the cramped quarters of a roadside motor court, the investigation unearths a hierarchy of local small-timers and hardened eastern convicts. As the ledger closes on this violent pursuit of stolen cash, the cost of justice is measured in the heavy price of a badge lost to the gritty reality of the underworld. ##YoursTrulyJohnnyDollar ##RadioNoir ##ClassicRadioDrama ##DetectiveStories ##CrimeFiction Original Broadcast Date: 01.13.1951
