Death on Skiis
Kay Wylie, always doing things people warn her not to do, reaches a hut accompanied by Tony Shaw, a friend of just three days. Shaw confides that he's really a detective secretly assigned to solve the two murders and that he's taken her to the hut as a lure for the murderer who, he's convinced, is her husband. Shaw says he'll wait outside the hut and burst in before her husband can kill her. But not everything is as it seems.
In a ski resort, Kay Wiley, spirited and restless, seeks excitement on the snowy slopes with her husband, Dan, a mystery writer whose thoughts often drift away from her. She defies Dan's caution and ventures to a notorious mountain hut with a vacationer, igniting a dangerous game with Dan at its center. A blizzard closes in, mirroring the turmoil within.
At a mountain ski lodge, adventurous Kay Wiley craves thrills on the snowy hills while her husband Dan, a mystery author, stays lost in his own thoughts. Against Dan's warnings, Kay heads to a dangerous mountain cabin with another guest, starting a deadly contest that puts Dan in the middle. As a snowstorm traps everyone inside, the chaos outside matches the trouble brewing between them.
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.
