Deadline For Death

CBS Radio Mystery Theater "Deadline For Death" is a Mystery from Thursday, September 5, 1974.

Johnny Promise is sent to the electric chair after his former partner in crime, Sam Rogers, testifies against him in court. Rogers goes free but has to live with Johnny’s last threat—that he’ll make sure Sam is killed within a month of his own death. Locked in a hotel room with no company, trusting no one, Sam lives for one month in total seclusion, emerging one month to the hour later. Too late, Sam remembers it’s the night to change from daylight saving to standard time.
