Suspense presents “Death Sentence,” originally broadcast November 4, 1948. Listed here as episode 4, this CBS thriller stars John Garfield as private investigator Tommy Cochran, with Gloria Blondell and Raymond Burr. The script was adapted for radio by Les Crutchfield from a story by Lou Lusty.
Back from vacation, Cochran learns that gangster Lou Cromwell has given him a seven-day deadline. Seeking refuge in Las Vegas, he meets Helen Ludlow and finds that escaping an old enemy may be more dangerous than facing him. A compact, noir-tinged tale of pressure, pursuit, and mounting uncertainty.
Suspense presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
