Death on Project X

The only thing government account Eli Hews knows about Project X, a top-secret research center working on the ultimate weapon, is the size of its tremendous budget. But Project X seems to be run efficiently, and Hews is ready to file a positive report until he receives a note saying “Beware, the end is near,” and then discovers that the project’s psychiatrist is insane. However, when he tries to recommend Project X’s termination, Hews faces his greatest threat: death.

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.
