Box 13 presents “Death Is No Joke,” episode 40, originally broadcast May 22, 1949. Alan Ladd stars as mystery writer and reluctant adventurer Dan Holiday in this late-series mystery, written by Oran Blackstone and directed by Richard Sanville.
When Dan answers a plea from his friend Alex, he arrives at the Trendler country estate, where a long-missing heir’s return has reopened bitter tensions over a major inheritance. A series of increasingly cruel practical jokes has the household on edge, and Dan must determine who is turning family discord into genuine danger.
Box 13 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.
