In "Lady From Tangiers," Rocky Jordan faces his most enigmatic case yet when a mysterious woman arrives with a proposition that will test every ounce of his street-smart cunning. She speaks in riddles, her past is shrouded in shadow, and her reasons for seeking out the American detective are anything but clear. As the case spirals deeper into the glamorous underbelly of North African intrigue, Rocky must navigate international espionage, double-crosses, and a femme fatale whose loyalties shift like desert sand. Sabby Davega is beside him at every turn, but even their partnership may not be enough to uncover what the Lady from Tangiers truly wants—or who she really works for.

The genius of Rocky Jordan, which commanded CBS airwaves from 1945 to 1951, lay in its exotic locales and sophisticated storytelling that transported listeners far beyond the typical noir detective formula. Set against the teeming markets and colonial intrigue of Casablanca, the show offered audiences an escape to international glamour while maintaining the sharp wit and gritty realism that made detective radio drama so thrilling. Jack Moyles's portrayal of the hard-boiled but honorable Jordan became iconic during the golden age of radio, proving that adventure could be as compelling as mystery.
