Suspense - "Murder by the Book" (Old Time Radio, 1947)

Suspense presents “Murder by the Book,” listed in the supplied archival metadata as episode 0, with an original broadcast date of July 1, 1947. Multiple episode logs, however, identify it as episode 253, originally aired July 10, 1947. Gloria Swanson stars as mystery novelist Emily Carlyle, whose troubling memory lapses and personal grief shadow her involvement in a psychiatrist’s murder case. As Emily looks beyond the circumstantial evidence against a young woman in custody, the investigation becomes an unnervingly personal mystery. Joseph Kearns co-stars as Lieutenant Hahn in this CBS broadcast, written by Robert L. Richards. Suspense presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned and mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
