Neatness Counts
Description
A detective gets stuck with the unlucky job of figuring out who killed a man that everyone hated so much that every single person who ever met him might have done it.
An investigator ends up with the unfortunate duty of solving the murder mystery about a man so universally panned that each and every person he knew in his lifetime could be a suspect.
In just one morning, Aeneas Carlyle callously tosses a faithful servant into the street, provokes his valuable housekeeper into quitting, infuriates a highly idealistic young man, and tightens the screws on a business associate. The next morning he is found murdered in his study. Two of these people admit they wanted to kill the despicable Carlyle and are arrested, but the police soon realize they don’t have the right person.
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.
