The Soft Spot
Philip Marlowe investigates the death of an elderly man found in a cheap hotel, following clues that include a drunk woodcarver, a down-on-her-luck woman interested in gold lockets, and a suspicious character with prominent ears, which eventually reveals a weakness in the murderer's otherwise cold nature.

The Adventures of Philip Marlowe was a radio series featuring Raymond Chandler's private eye, Philip Marlowe. Robert C. Reinehr and Jon D. Swartz, in their book, The A to Z of Old Time Radio, noted that the program differed from most others in its genre: "It was a more hard-boiled program than many of the other private detective shows of the time, containing few quips or quaint characters."
