During the 1970s, the BBC, the British Forces Broadcasting Service (BFBS), and the Armed Forces Radio and Television Service (AFRTS) frequently picked up vintage American transcription discs from the Ziv Company library to fill out their late-night mystery blocks or drama schedules, exposing a whole new generation of overseas listeners to Golden Age US radio. In this tense radio mystery, Philo Vance is drawn into a disturbing case involving a baffling murder marked by eerie circumstances and psychological undercurrents that unsettle everyone involved. As Vance probes the victim’s final hours, he uncovers a maze of conflicting motives, hidden fears, and strange behavior among those closest to the crime. His trademark blend of logic, intuition, and sharp observation gradually exposes the truth behind the nightmare, revealing a killer whose actions are rooted in obsession and desperation rather than chance.
