Cold Storage

A Baltimore man inherits money and locks up his mother in an old Underground Railroad hideout, thinking she's dead when she's really alive, but everything goes wrong when he marries a sneaky woman who wants to steal his property, and he finds out a trapper's widow is trying to blackmail him.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
