The Murder Market

Description

Challenged by dynamic business entrepreneur J.P. Carson, Theodora Lewis accepts his unusual offer and for once in her life does something that isn’t “sensible.” Leaving her insipid fiancé and a humdrum secretarial job at an insurance company, she joins her new boss on a confidential business trip. At a mountaintop hideaway, high finance becomes high intrigue when Theodora finds herself the prime suspect in a murder—with no way to explain her obvious involvement.

A young woman grows tired of her cheap fiancé's boring ways. When she gets offered an exciting new job, it surprisingly leads to murder!

Being engaged to a penny-pinching fiancee is tiresome and dull. The young lady is eager to accept a new and exciting career which unexpectedly leads to homicide!

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.
