A Thousand-Year-Old Story

CBS Radio Mystery Theater "A Thousand-Year-Old Story" is a Mystery from Friday, September 29, 1978.

Sir Dabney is found dead on his yacht soon after it enters a small port in the Marianna Islands. Everyone on board assumes Sir Dabney died of a heart attack, but Dr. Charles Duggin, at the request of police inspector Jim Trees, performs an autopsy, which proves that the 68-year-old millionaire had been poisoned. Trees is convinced the murder was committed by Sir Dabney’s secretary, Clive Chubb, whom he discovers, had been having an affair with Dabney’s young wife. But Dr. Duggin, an old school chum of Chubb’s, refuses to go along with Trees’ theory.
