A Blueprint for Murder - Old Time Radio Suspense

This week on The Shiver Show, we bring you deceit and deadly intentions with “A Blueprint for Murder” from Lux Radio Theatre (1954), adapted just one year after the successful 1953 film, directed by Andrew L. Stone, and starring Joseph Cotten and Jean Peters.This golden era radio episode features Dan Dailey as Cam, and Dorothy McGuire as Lynn, the dreaded stepmother with secrets to spare. McGuire is terrific here, proving she can go dark, despite Hollywood often casting her as the “nice girl.” The supporting cast is terrific too, with Barney Phillips as Captain Detective Pringle, Jack Kruschen as Lieutenant Cole, and William Conrad as the district attorney. This is a compelling mystery with a slow-burn tension and meticulous clues. Join us for secrets, suspicion, and a blueprint that doesn’t quite go to plan.Thank you for listening!   If you like the show, please share us with your friends and family AND give us a review!
