The Return of the Moresbys
Description
Seeing his rich wife's obsession with a guru could lead her to leave her fortune to him, Richard Moresby decides to ensure her estate for himself by drugging Una and staging her death as a suicide, only to discover later that she plans to return.
When Richard Moresby realizes his wealthy wife Una might give all her money to a spiritual teacher she's crazy about, he drugs her and makes it look like she killed herself so he can keep the fortune, but then he finds out she's planning to come back.
When Una Moresby announces that she has left her considerable fortune to an organization her husband considers phony, he decides to murder her and succeeds in making her death look like a suicide. But an inexplicable series of coincidences makes Richard wonder if his dead wife is trying to reach out from beyond the grave to seek retribution.
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.
