Description:
Introduction by Glenhall Taylor, Director of the Radio Broadcasts. The Viennese Strangler - Exactly as broadcast on April 9, 1945 "I WONDER WHAT OTHER TREASURES THIS BOX CONTAINS", Holmes said to Watson as they searched the belongings of a murdered Hungarian in the Vienna boarding house where they were staying. After a beautiful German pianist led them to the Hungarian, a case of blackmail, a Chinese actor and a flirtatious soprano forced Holmes to put aside his violin and go undercover - for a date with a strangler. The Notorious Canary Trainer - Exactly as broadcast on April 23, 1945 "THE NEAREST THING WE HAVE TO A CORPSE IN A PAIR OF DEAD CANARIES", said Holmes, when a pleasant holiday was strangely interrupted by a suicide and a confession to a murder. Where is the victim? Two dead canaries lead Holmes and Watson on a twisting trail of deceit - to a very living killer.
