As our intrepid private detective unravels this tangled web, you'll hear the sharp crack of a revolver, the scrape of footsteps on wet pavement, and the sultry voice of a dame who knows more than she's telling. The tension builds with each revelation: What secret is worth killing for? Who is really pulling the strings? By the time that final twist lands, you'll be gripping your radio in the dark, wondering if justice will prevail—or if George's luck has finally run out.

This particular episode showcases the program at its peak, blending regional intrigue with big-city menace in a way that only radio could achieve.
