Forgotten Detectives of Old Time Radio|Mystery Audio Dramas

Today's Mystery: A late-night distress call from a professional building sends Detectives Scanlon and Grady into the depths of a crime that defies expectations. Amidst the echo of multiple shots fired, they find themselves piecing together the fragments of a life lived in the shadows. An old woman's untimely death in an empty office, a janitor with a story that doesn't quite fit, and a switchboard operator who knows more than she's telling.
