This is Steve Granger, private detective with a story about
a body which was dropped practically out of my nose
(03:16):
and started me on a trail with end of the murder.
In just a moment, I'll take you back to one
of my most interesting cases. This is Granger. It was
early morning, from around one am. I've been wheeling a
rented card on one of Long Island's highways on my
(03:37):
way back to Manhattan, when my headlighte suddenly went out.
I pulled out of the side of the road and
was checking the fuse when I heard it the way
the approaching car was being handled. I'm taking it with
some liquid with alcohol. Where he's brangerbout fifty yards atop
the highway, the door of the speeding car open and
the body of a man came tumbling out. Give me,
(04:09):
say you are right. What happened? He got hurt bad.
I stood looking at the man who had passed out
at my feet, and I went back to my car,
drove up to the unconscious man, listened to him into
the back seat, and went through his wallet. I found
his name was ump and Robel and his address Cove City.
I rushed him to the hospital, where I explained what
had happened. The Cove City police chief showed up and
(04:33):
I gave him a detailed report. Then I met missus Robbel,
a strikingly handsome woman in an early forties, who arrived
at the hospital. Company was a.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Man who brought my husband here.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yes, I am misters Rob, mister Granger.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I don't know how to thank you. Oh, this is
an old family friend.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Phil Douglas, glad to know your Granger.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Phil I wonder if you would mind that him be
speaking to mister Granger privately for one moment.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
All I have a way with see.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Wants. It's all about mister Trouble.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
My husband seemed to be coming along all right, except
that he seems to be suffering from a temporary loss
of memory.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
That's bad luck.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
That's why I came to you, mister Granger. I want
to ask you a question, A very important.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Question to go ahead ask.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
First of all, I want you to know that I
asked our local chief of police about you. He has
noted me that you have an excellent reputation as a
private investigator.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I must by the chiefs president.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
What about the question, mister Granger.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
What did you do with a ten thousand dollars my.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Husband was carrying? Your husband was carrying ten thousand dollars?
He was the man asked him out of the carmaster
stolen minute because when I started him pridentification, all he
was carrying was fifteen dollars. And you certainly, I'm positive
I five found ten thousand dollars. I'm might have turned
over to.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
The tief I see.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
With the Granger seems you're a private detective.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I want to employ you.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
In what way it's trouble.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I want you to clear my.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Husband of what that's just as.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
I don't know, but the ten thousand dollars has something.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
To do with it.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
How did you find out about the money I'm tinking
of by accident?
Speaker 4 (06:07):
One of the tellers of the bank phoned our home.
He asked, mister Robo, what are the numbers of.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
The bills recorded? Did you talk to your husband about
the money? No?
Speaker 4 (06:14):
You see, I have implicit faith in my husband. I'm
positive that he had origin.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
For not telling me. Missus Roble left me for a
few words for the doctor to me. The ten thousand
dollars'n looked obvious. The old shakedown game was being played again.
I was turning this over in my mind. When Phil
Douglas turned up the Grandeur. I spoke to the chief
of police. He said that there was no further reason
for you were to wait around. Thanks. After all, it's lead.
(06:42):
It will take some time to drive back to Manhattan.
I decided to stay over nights. Mister Douglas. They have
nothing urgent in New York. You know I've been mulling
over your story.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Grade Geer.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
It seemed a trifle incredible. H If the men were
driving with the headlights down full they were, why didn't
they see you? They probably weren't too much of a hurry.
Uh huh. Why with sudden curiosity, mister Douglas, I don't
have to report to you. You know I made my
statement of the law. I know you did, but I
(07:14):
happened to have a little influence here in close to
me myself. Oh you're the mayor. No I'm not. But
I'm curious to know why you're not going back to
New York tonight. I don't think I care to tell
you that.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Well, I'm a private detective, and the emphasis is on
the word private. I'll can tell you that interesting story
in a minute. There was something in mister Phil Douglas's
eye that gave me the impression I wasn't very popular
with him. I didn't bother to say so. Well, I
(07:50):
just left the hospital and headed to the local newspaper.
The editor proved to be a very cooperative character. Just
what is having robots position in the community.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
He's quite a pub behind the throne. He is a
robotol company, those didn' bees outfit.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Why can't you tell me about a man named Soul Douglas.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Douglas roban politician, really nice guy.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Why he acted like he didn't want me around?
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Y don't mind, Daddy, He didn't anyone who might get
more attention than he does what you do?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Besides being politician, he got the enterprises.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
You know, he stations, lend. It's a little money tas leaders.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Would there be any reason for a beef between Roble
and Douglas?
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Oh, you're any good friends?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Well rob is the direct goverments of the Douglas in
one way.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Well, Robot is the plea pater and it's the standing
joke between the two men. We have a local road house.
He we had a town the June Room. Add that
you can play a games and caddic out there. Having
the play raded, there was no lock.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Oh maybe I'll look around out there. Maybe I'll come
up with something like what some on impossible that I
might have recognized one of the men who was with
Robl and because I was retained by Missus Roebel to
solve this little mystery, I think I'll go to work
w me to run the item too. Why don't you?
And also the fact that I'm staying at the what's
(09:16):
the local hotel house. Yeah, that'd be grateful to good
prints that you know by.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
It's more open.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
You don't make that statement about no one of the men.
Hope will come out and the open that my friend
is not only possible, but completely probable. The editor furnished
me with a description of Robot's car. Then I went
looking to the cold house. There was a typical suburban hotel.
(09:47):
I got himself a room, got on the phone and
talked to the New York Police Department, giving them the
description of the car and a few facts, and I
sailed for eight dollars of repose a big clock angle
it snooze at the time was nine o'clock in the morning,
got yourself scarred dressed, was about to leave when the
(10:08):
phone ring.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Oh, I just read the morning paper. It's sad that
you wi in my husband's car.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Last night, Miss Rubel. Is a reason for that statement
being in the paper. I'll tell you why. When the
time rolls around, he tell me, how is your husband?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
He seems to be coming along all right.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
It's course is normal.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
The doctor's taking care of the poses, and.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
He still hasn't said a word.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
The doctor give any reason for that.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
No, he's talking about it too.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, okay, missus rubell, and I'll check back with your
litter go by. You know what than that is all right?
He put up those hands. This is same way to
stay good morning. Got up, go throwing me get he's
got brag? I got it? Yeah, come on, you were
(11:01):
going places the other guys who slug rubble and throw
him out of the car. I thought that ideam in
the paper would smoke you gophers out of your home.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Going down the back stairs over that way.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
What makes you think you're gonna get away with it?
Let me worry about that monkey.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Thank what's wrong coming down the opening the door? Hurry
it up to you? Come on, Hank, I'll hurry it
up steps and you can have a downstairs screaming tool.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I'd bent over and throw him a bigger the two
men over my shoulder and down the steps. The smaller man,
Hank had been too quick for me, srug me with
my own gun. As I stagged to the steps, I
just glimpsed Hank, helping his pat up and out the
back door. I was suffering from a sore skull, but
at least I hadn't been a snack. I remember the
bar next door, and went there, shitting the little medicine
(11:58):
down my abdomen way would a leady ate the pitts
and knocking my head if I was desutted except for
a bland nuzzling a beer, I ordered the same thing,
and she spoke to me. It looked like you had
had a rough time. I had met something coming the
other way. Too bad next time, learned to Jack. I
(12:21):
intend to I haven't seen you around town before. Nope,
from New York.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Yeah, I seem to remember you.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
From some place. You from New York? No, I remember
you're the private eye Steve Grainger. Sum, I'm sure I'm
friend deeper.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
You staying in Kotdy for a while.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Yeah, there's a nightlife around here.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
I know it's not to my enjoy. Shout a town away.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It's called the Dunes. The dunes, Eh, nothing like?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
No, not good, not bad?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Like to go there? I might? Can I why not
make it ninety I'm staying at the hotel. Okay, what's pleasure?
Fran Draper flashed me a mouthful of perfect crockery, slid
(13:22):
off the stool and left the skull had it from
the top of her shining head to the tips of
raleighated pumps to a curiosity about me, A curiosity which
some more I thought about it a figure. It seemed.
I almost got the idea that someone was cooking up
something for me and the recipe wasn't going to be
too tasty, And just a moment, I'll bring you the
(13:43):
climax in the case. I sat there in the bar,
finishing my beer and trying to make sense out of
the situation. Then I went back to the cove house
to find a mess. This is the New York police
that picked up Levin rubbles Car. I made my way
(14:03):
back to the Big Study and stopped off first at
cal Hendrick's place and gave him the details robbery as
Tall's attempted kidnapping.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Say, that's quite a story, Steve, my edit is gonna
like it.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Well before he gets it. You're gonna have to give
me a little assistance, Izah. I want you to come
down a police headquarters find Levin robbles Car. I figured
I could use your eagle eye on it. For a
story like that, you can not only use my eye,
but also my nose. Don't tell me I get it
from those towns to bloodhound. Well, I guess I wasn't
(14:40):
much help with the car. Steve only like it then
a thing to give me a lead, not even a fingerprint.
According to the lab boys, we might have more luck
with the files. You're description of those two hoodlums rings
a bell to me. You know here we are linky
linky something. Wait a minute, link he'd both set a
(15:03):
name there and him. That's a big one. His power
was called Hank Han't Cawson. Yeah it's here note on
the bottom. They worked as a team for years.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Uh huh, there he is.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
At least I knows something about my two friends. Oh,
just the same. They just a pair of cheap arms.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
The real man must be higher up.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
And you can say that again, Why didn't you hear me?
I dropped Cat off at his place and turn my
car's nose in the direction of Coast City again. I
called him to the hospital to inquire about Levin Roebel,
but he was still on the state of shock and
lots of memory, and I prepared to pick up friend
Draper for my promised view of Coast City's nightlife. The
(15:47):
dunes with a combination of smoking, semi hysteria, the orchestra
consisted of one piano and a smooth talking waiter deposited
the blonde and knee and a booth.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Didn't you like it here?
Speaker 5 (15:59):
It's quite a spot.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Yeah, quite fine. Get a dance?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Oh not yet, that's that's all.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
How about taking out your coat? Oh not yet? With
with I get warm? Get warm in here? Where are
you usually living? It's not a furnace. What are you
looking at?
Speaker 4 (16:21):
M oh nothing, nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
That's a lot. That's nothing. That's the Douglas. That's quite
a hunk of humans.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I think I will take this coat off. No, just
don't button u up.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
How are you trying to pull? Turn? Great? Oh yeah.
I grabbed for the light bulb and the lamp on
our table and they didn't drop the corner into the socket.
The light skews in the darkness. Gave me a chance
to get friend Draper out of there. Come on, baby,
(16:54):
getting out of here, everybody, Come on at the storm
my card. I'm quietly alright, plug him inside it.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I'm gonna have forgeted a plea screener.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
You're a fun man, So last you try. The oldest
back in the world car still plug here getting you know,
a nice slub wearing a corn blone. Only wouldn't. I'm
buting your coat. They're waiting for Phil Douglas to show up.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
I was not cut up.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
You're gonna yell for help and that the Douglas would
have called a cop and have me locked up for
more things than I care to think about. What's the
act between you and Douglas? Nothing? You're mixed up on
this global business. I know that. Don't forget it, okay,
I'll forget it for about an hour and taking you
back to the hotel. I want to get into more
grief than you're mixed up in. Now. You'll stay there
(17:52):
until I get back. I dropped and draper out at
the hotel. She sat into the lobby and got lost.
I drove out to the hospital with a trick in mind.
If it worked, i'd have the robo case wrapped up
like a bundle of lettuce. The nurse admitted me the
ROBO's room. Mister rouble, mister robe, All right, robul you
(18:24):
might be pulling the doctors, but you're not kidding me.
Open those eyes and talk.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Who are you?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I'm Steve Granger, the man who found you, brought you
here who was retained by your wife to find out
about the missing ten thousand dollars. She knows about that,
she does a WHI was thinking about being unconscious, afraid
to answer questions. Yes, if you had talked when I
first brought you here, and have this matter cleaned up
and tell me about the ten grams? Did two men
(18:50):
get it? Yes? There was a shakedown going on, wasn't
there What kind of a stake was it? Blackmail situation?
I was married once before. My first wife wanted a divorce.
I offered to give it to her. You know, I
pore I'd never get mixed up in a divorce case.
(19:11):
Look at me now, No, no, no, it's not that
she and I were in perfect agreement, no hard feeling.
Josey's not behind this move. She died six months ago.
A robel tell me this. What part does the bland
named friend Draper play in it? She was part of
the divorce Seminence's great. She has some leticines and photos,
But in the yells of the law my position in
(19:32):
Cob City, I'd be laughed at. It would have broken
my present wife's heart. Ohie, she'd feet a lot better
if you level were they what about this draper girl.
She's got some take witnesses. Also, the evidence he has
is not dated. She can make it feel as though
the pictures were taken recently. Okay, Robul, thanks for the dope.
I'd suggest that you suddenly recover your memory. Go home.
(19:54):
What the draper girl? She's my dish. She's a little
too rare for you. I nodded so long to Mervyn
Rubble and mold the whole sorry affair over my mind.
On the way back to the hotel. It'd be easy
to throw a scare into the draped girl and get
back the pictures and letters. But getting the ten thousands
(20:16):
from the two mugs, that would be another story. As
I rapped on friend Draper's door, it swung in with
my real eyes that had been open all the time.
I moved inside, feeling for a light switch because the
shade were drawn. The girl would pull no more frames.
He was lying on a back in the middle of
(20:36):
a mustard bed. There purple marks around a white neck.
The killer had done it by strangling. So you came
back return, Douglas, What are you doing here? You killed
her after you brought her back here. You grabbed her
on the throat and strangled. No, you're done, Douglas. I've
got an alibi, even up saying a man you should
be interested in, Mervyn Rubble.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Don't pull that, you will.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
I've got away with us, and I think I will
Rouble will be glad to testify. Throw the clerk Downsteads.
He saw me come up not more than two minutes ago.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I don't believe you, Granger.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I'm calling a police plant. Somebody's coming. What are you
gonna do? What's gonna get the Blackmao pictures? Scott? Then
we can stick that Rouble from another tense? How can
you do that?
Speaker 3 (21:21):
We don't come out of the car. You should read
the paper thing.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
He's a lot of okay, boys come right in. Hey,
let's right, Egg. You want to no, tell you back
to me? Thanks to all? What is that that means?
All three of you? Douglas. I don't be ridiculous, Granger.
Turn I'll just disabled you three boys. Then we can
get under way. You'll regret this, Granger. I want you Yeah,
(21:48):
I turn around again. You mister Douglas. What's wrong with
your shirt?
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Looks like it's got a lot of starch in it.
Or else you're carrying a little contraband in there. Come here,
I thought, so the letters and pictures fran Draper was
holding over a robu, I was going to try them
over to the police for evidence.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
You were.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Lanky. Take a look at the girl on the bed.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Yeah, hey, that's friend.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
He's dead. So now I who killed her? You too, screener,
And I heard what you said is okay.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Man, he's a lie.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
You got to put no more a wrap on to
them trying.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
To say that, say, oh, they are Douglas. The way
I get it is that Fran Draper came to coach
Cate a blackmail robum. He found out that you wanted
as the bigger friend of roubles as you pretended you
and fran got together. I never saw her before, and
that's why it was so simple for her to set
up that frame up at the dunes tonight. No, you
two are partners. Can you prove that? I can try?
(22:52):
Linky Douglas hired you gotta beat Robot get the blackmail.
When he didn't he yeah, Shorge, thanks, but you and
handko ideas you double cross Douglas and fran Draper. He
took the dough for yourself, so we didn't care. Of
course you're dead, that's why you were carrying the incriminating
pictures and letters inside your shirt. A Douglas, when you
found out that I took the Draper girl away from
the dunes, who got scared. He thought he might sell
the truth about you.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
They came here, not me, sure, but.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
They didn't have murder in mine, Douglas. All they wanted
was the blackmail stuff so they could make a pitch
for another ten thousand. But you got hear ahead of them.
You must have, because you have that evidence you killed
Fran Draper. Are you mad?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Then?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
How did you know she'd been strangled when you haven't
been close enough to see her neck? Why you don't try,
A Douglas. Well, friends, that's the story. I'll be back
to wrap up the case in just a minute. I
(23:51):
sat Hill Douglas through the arms and I took him
in the two muggs down the coast that the police
headquarters and told my story to an amazed and thoroughly
riledie of police. The mugs answered a few questions and
were locked up. I went back to the hospital where
Mervyn Roebel had amazingly recovered his power of speech. No,
it's over, Granger. Yeah, most certainly is.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
We don't know how to say. Send you, mister Granger.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Say that for later. First, here is the black Man materials,
and I hope you're telling missus Roebel the whole story.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
He already has, mister Granger.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Ten thousand dollars is being held by the police department.
You're certainly getting it back since the bank seller kept
the record of the serial. Anothers. That's wonderful. And now
let's talk about you. Her fear is normal under these circumstances.
I understand. Well, I'd like to blush and say no,
but this happens to be my business. Fine, I'm glad
to see you are not affected by by false modesty.
(24:42):
I shall send you a check in the amount of
one thousand dollars. That's ten percent of what I've been
saved by you. Thank you. I won't send you the receipt,
but I will leave you one idea. What's that next time,
tell the cops for the wife, mister Granger. This will
be no next time. Fine, the wise guy. It doesn't
make the same mistake twice, Seed Granger. Again, its had
(25:08):
one of the most interesting cases in my files and
I'll have another one for you, so be around next time.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Welcome back, another solid episode. The only re all complaint
is the sound quality of the file we have is rough,
but I thought it was a good episode. While we
don't have a lot of radio detective programs from this
era circulating, the writing is of the same quality as
American TV detective shows of the same time. All right,

generally positive comments on Danger with Granger. We start out
over on Spotify where Mechanics sixty six gives the episode

with him? Make sure he can't put the finger on.
This is Steve Granger, private detective with a story about
a body which was dropped practically out of my nose
(03:16):
and started me on a trail with end of the murder.
In just a moment, I'll take you back to one
of my most interesting cases. This is Granger. It was
early morning, from around one am. I've been wheeling a
rented card on one of Long Island's highways on my
(03:37):
way back to Manhattan, when my headlighte suddenly went out.
I pulled out of the side of the road and
was checking the fuse when I heard it the way
the approaching car was being handled. I'm taking it with
some liquid with alcohol. Where he's brangerbout fifty yards atop
the highway, the door of the speeding car open and
the body of a man came tumbling out. Give me,
(04:09):
say you are right. What happened? He got hurt bad.
I stood looking at the man who had passed out
at my feet, and I went back to my car,
drove up to the unconscious man, listened to him into
the back seat, and went through his wallet. I found
his name was ump and Robel and his address Cove City.
I rushed him to the hospital, where I explained what
had happened. The Cove City police chief showed up and
(04:33):
I gave him a detailed report. Then I met missus Robbel,
a strikingly handsome woman in an early forties, who arrived
at the hospital. Company was a.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Man who brought my husband here.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yes, I am misters Rob, mister Granger.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I don't know how to thank you. Oh, this is
an old family friend.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Phil Douglas, glad to know your Granger.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Phil I wonder if you would mind that him be
speaking to mister Granger privately for one moment.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
All I have a way with see.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Wants. It's all about mister Trouble.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
My husband seemed to be coming along all right, except
that he seems to be suffering from a temporary loss
of memory.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
That's bad luck.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
That's why I came to you, mister Granger. I want
to ask you a question, A very important.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Question to go ahead ask.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
First of all, I want you to know that I
asked our local chief of police about you. He has
noted me that you have an excellent reputation as a
private investigator.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I must by the chiefs president.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
What about the question, mister Granger.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
What did you do with a ten thousand dollars my.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Husband was carrying? Your husband was carrying ten thousand dollars?
He was the man asked him out of the carmaster
stolen minute because when I started him pridentification, all he
was carrying was fifteen dollars. And you certainly, I'm positive
I five found ten thousand dollars. I'm might have turned
over to.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
The tief I see.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
With the Granger seems you're a private detective.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I want to employ you.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
In what way it's trouble.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I want you to clear my.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Husband of what that's just as.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
I don't know, but the ten thousand dollars has something.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
To do with it.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
How did you find out about the money I'm tinking
of by accident?
Speaker 4 (06:07):
One of the tellers of the bank phoned our home.
He asked, mister Robo, what are the numbers of.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
The bills recorded? Did you talk to your husband about
the money? No?
Speaker 4 (06:14):
You see, I have implicit faith in my husband. I'm
positive that he had origin.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
For not telling me. Missus Roble left me for a
few words for the doctor to me. The ten thousand
dollars'n looked obvious. The old shakedown game was being played again.
I was turning this over in my mind. When Phil
Douglas turned up the Grandeur. I spoke to the chief
of police. He said that there was no further reason
for you were to wait around. Thanks. After all, it's lead.
(06:42):
It will take some time to drive back to Manhattan.
I decided to stay over nights. Mister Douglas. They have
nothing urgent in New York. You know I've been mulling
over your story.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Grade Geer.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
It seemed a trifle incredible. H If the men were
driving with the headlights down full they were, why didn't
they see you? They probably weren't too much of a hurry.
Uh huh. Why with sudden curiosity, mister Douglas, I don't
have to report to you. You know I made my
statement of the law. I know you did, but I
(07:14):
happened to have a little influence here in close to
me myself. Oh you're the mayor. No I'm not. But
I'm curious to know why you're not going back to
New York tonight. I don't think I care to tell
you that.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Well, I'm a private detective, and the emphasis is on
the word private. I'll can tell you that interesting story
in a minute. There was something in mister Phil Douglas's
eye that gave me the impression I wasn't very popular
with him. I didn't bother to say so. Well, I
(07:50):
just left the hospital and headed to the local newspaper.
The editor proved to be a very cooperative character. Just
what is having robots position in the community.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
He's quite a pub behind the throne. He is a
robotol company, those didn' bees outfit.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Why can't you tell me about a man named Soul Douglas.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Douglas roban politician, really nice guy.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Why he acted like he didn't want me around?
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Y don't mind, Daddy, He didn't anyone who might get
more attention than he does what you do?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Besides being politician, he got the enterprises.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
You know, he stations, lend. It's a little money tas leaders.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Would there be any reason for a beef between Roble
and Douglas?
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Oh, you're any good friends?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Well rob is the direct goverments of the Douglas in
one way.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Well, Robot is the plea pater and it's the standing
joke between the two men. We have a local road house.
He we had a town the June Room. Add that
you can play a games and caddic out there. Having
the play raded, there was no lock.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Oh maybe I'll look around out there. Maybe I'll come
up with something like what some on impossible that I
might have recognized one of the men who was with
Robl and because I was retained by Missus Roebel to
solve this little mystery, I think I'll go to work
w me to run the item too. Why don't you?
And also the fact that I'm staying at the what's
(09:16):
the local hotel house. Yeah, that'd be grateful to good
prints that you know by.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
It's more open.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
You don't make that statement about no one of the men.
Hope will come out and the open that my friend
is not only possible, but completely probable. The editor furnished
me with a description of Robot's car. Then I went
looking to the cold house. There was a typical suburban hotel.
(09:47):
I got himself a room, got on the phone and
talked to the New York Police Department, giving them the
description of the car and a few facts, and I
sailed for eight dollars of repose a big clock angle
it snooze at the time was nine o'clock in the morning,
got yourself scarred dressed, was about to leave when the
(10:08):
phone ring.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Oh, I just read the morning paper. It's sad that
you wi in my husband's car.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Last night, Miss Rubel. Is a reason for that statement
being in the paper. I'll tell you why. When the
time rolls around, he tell me, how is your husband?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
He seems to be coming along all right.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
It's course is normal.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
The doctor's taking care of the poses, and.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
He still hasn't said a word.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
The doctor give any reason for that.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
No, he's talking about it too.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, okay, missus rubell, and I'll check back with your
litter go by. You know what than that is all right?
He put up those hands. This is same way to
stay good morning. Got up, go throwing me get he's
got brag? I got it? Yeah, come on, you were
(11:01):
going places the other guys who slug rubble and throw
him out of the car. I thought that ideam in
the paper would smoke you gophers out of your home.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Going down the back stairs over that way.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
What makes you think you're gonna get away with it?
Let me worry about that monkey.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Thank what's wrong coming down the opening the door? Hurry
it up to you? Come on, Hank, I'll hurry it
up steps and you can have a downstairs screaming tool.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I'd bent over and throw him a bigger the two
men over my shoulder and down the steps. The smaller man,
Hank had been too quick for me, srug me with
my own gun. As I stagged to the steps, I
just glimpsed Hank, helping his pat up and out the
back door. I was suffering from a sore skull, but
at least I hadn't been a snack. I remember the
bar next door, and went there, shitting the little medicine
(11:58):
down my abdomen way would a leady ate the pitts
and knocking my head if I was desutted except for
a bland nuzzling a beer, I ordered the same thing,
and she spoke to me. It looked like you had
had a rough time. I had met something coming the
other way. Too bad next time, learned to Jack. I
(12:21):
intend to I haven't seen you around town before. Nope,
from New York.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Yeah, I seem to remember you.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
From some place. You from New York? No, I remember
you're the private eye Steve Grainger. Sum, I'm sure I'm
friend deeper.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
You staying in Kotdy for a while.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Yeah, there's a nightlife around here.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
I know it's not to my enjoy. Shout a town away.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It's called the Dunes. The dunes, Eh, nothing like?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
No, not good, not bad?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Like to go there? I might? Can I why not
make it ninety I'm staying at the hotel. Okay, what's pleasure?
Fran Draper flashed me a mouthful of perfect crockery, slid
(13:22):
off the stool and left the skull had it from
the top of her shining head to the tips of
raleighated pumps to a curiosity about me, A curiosity which
some more I thought about it a figure. It seemed.
I almost got the idea that someone was cooking up
something for me and the recipe wasn't going to be
too tasty, And just a moment, I'll bring you the
(13:43):
climax in the case. I sat there in the bar,
finishing my beer and trying to make sense out of
the situation. Then I went back to the cove house
to find a mess. This is the New York police
that picked up Levin rubbles Car. I made my way
(14:03):
back to the Big Study and stopped off first at
cal Hendrick's place and gave him the details robbery as
Tall's attempted kidnapping.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Say, that's quite a story, Steve, my edit is gonna
like it.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Well before he gets it. You're gonna have to give
me a little assistance, Izah. I want you to come
down a police headquarters find Levin robbles Car. I figured
I could use your eagle eye on it. For a
story like that, you can not only use my eye,
but also my nose. Don't tell me I get it
from those towns to bloodhound. Well, I guess I wasn't
(14:40):
much help with the car. Steve only like it then
a thing to give me a lead, not even a fingerprint.
According to the lab boys, we might have more luck
with the files. You're description of those two hoodlums rings
a bell to me. You know here we are linky
linky something. Wait a minute, link he'd both set a
(15:03):
name there and him. That's a big one. His power
was called Hank Han't Cawson. Yeah it's here note on
the bottom. They worked as a team for years.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Uh huh, there he is.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
At least I knows something about my two friends. Oh,
just the same. They just a pair of cheap arms.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
The real man must be higher up.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
And you can say that again, Why didn't you hear me?
I dropped Cat off at his place and turn my
car's nose in the direction of Coast City again. I
called him to the hospital to inquire about Levin Roebel,
but he was still on the state of shock and
lots of memory, and I prepared to pick up friend
Draper for my promised view of Coast City's nightlife. The
(15:47):
dunes with a combination of smoking, semi hysteria, the orchestra
consisted of one piano and a smooth talking waiter deposited
the blonde and knee and a booth.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Didn't you like it here?
Speaker 5 (15:59):
It's quite a spot.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Yeah, quite fine. Get a dance?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Oh not yet, that's that's all.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
How about taking out your coat? Oh not yet? With
with I get warm? Get warm in here? Where are
you usually living? It's not a furnace. What are you
looking at?
Speaker 4 (16:21):
M oh nothing, nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
That's a lot. That's nothing. That's the Douglas. That's quite
a hunk of humans.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I think I will take this coat off. No, just
don't button u up.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
How are you trying to pull? Turn? Great? Oh yeah.
I grabbed for the light bulb and the lamp on
our table and they didn't drop the corner into the socket.
The light skews in the darkness. Gave me a chance
to get friend Draper out of there. Come on, baby,
(16:54):
getting out of here, everybody, Come on at the storm
my card. I'm quietly alright, plug him inside it.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I'm gonna have forgeted a plea screener.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
You're a fun man, So last you try. The oldest
back in the world car still plug here getting you know,
a nice slub wearing a corn blone. Only wouldn't. I'm
buting your coat. They're waiting for Phil Douglas to show up.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
I was not cut up.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
You're gonna yell for help and that the Douglas would
have called a cop and have me locked up for
more things than I care to think about. What's the
act between you and Douglas? Nothing? You're mixed up on
this global business. I know that. Don't forget it, okay,
I'll forget it for about an hour and taking you
back to the hotel. I want to get into more
grief than you're mixed up in. Now. You'll stay there
(17:52):
until I get back. I dropped and draper out at
the hotel. She sat into the lobby and got lost.
I drove out to the hospital with a trick in mind.
If it worked, i'd have the robo case wrapped up
like a bundle of lettuce. The nurse admitted me the
ROBO's room. Mister rouble, mister robe, All right, robul you
(18:24):
might be pulling the doctors, but you're not kidding me.
Open those eyes and talk.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
Who are you?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I'm Steve Granger, the man who found you, brought you
here who was retained by your wife to find out
about the missing ten thousand dollars. She knows about that,
she does a WHI was thinking about being unconscious, afraid
to answer questions. Yes, if you had talked when I
first brought you here, and have this matter cleaned up
and tell me about the ten grams? Did two men
(18:50):
get it? Yes? There was a shakedown going on, wasn't
there What kind of a stake was it? Blackmail situation?
I was married once before. My first wife wanted a divorce.
I offered to give it to her. You know, I
pore I'd never get mixed up in a divorce case.
(19:11):
Look at me now, No, no, no, it's not that
she and I were in perfect agreement, no hard feeling.
Josey's not behind this move. She died six months ago.
A robel tell me this. What part does the bland
named friend Draper play in it? She was part of
the divorce Seminence's great. She has some leticines and photos,
But in the yells of the law my position in
(19:32):
Cob City, I'd be laughed at. It would have broken
my present wife's heart. Ohie, she'd feet a lot better
if you level were they what about this draper girl.
She's got some take witnesses. Also, the evidence he has
is not dated. She can make it feel as though
the pictures were taken recently. Okay, Robul, thanks for the dope.
I'd suggest that you suddenly recover your memory. Go home.
(19:54):
What the draper girl? She's my dish. She's a little
too rare for you. I nodded so long to Mervyn
Rubble and mold the whole sorry affair over my mind.
On the way back to the hotel. It'd be easy
to throw a scare into the draped girl and get
back the pictures and letters. But getting the ten thousands
(20:16):
from the two mugs, that would be another story. As
I rapped on friend Draper's door, it swung in with
my real eyes that had been open all the time.
I moved inside, feeling for a light switch because the
shade were drawn. The girl would pull no more frames.
He was lying on a back in the middle of
(20:36):
a mustard bed. There purple marks around a white neck.
The killer had done it by strangling. So you came
back return, Douglas, What are you doing here? You killed
her after you brought her back here. You grabbed her
on the throat and strangled. No, you're done, Douglas. I've
got an alibi, even up saying a man you should
be interested in, Mervyn Rubble.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Don't pull that, you will.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
I've got away with us, and I think I will
Rouble will be glad to testify. Throw the clerk Downsteads.
He saw me come up not more than two minutes ago.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I don't believe you, Granger.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I'm calling a police plant. Somebody's coming. What are you
gonna do? What's gonna get the Blackmao pictures? Scott? Then
we can stick that Rouble from another tense? How can
you do that?
Speaker 3 (21:21):
We don't come out of the car. You should read
the paper thing.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
He's a lot of okay, boys come right in. Hey,
let's right, Egg. You want to no, tell you back
to me? Thanks to all? What is that that means?
All three of you? Douglas. I don't be ridiculous, Granger.
Turn I'll just disabled you three boys. Then we can
get under way. You'll regret this, Granger. I want you Yeah,
(21:48):
I turn around again. You mister Douglas. What's wrong with
your shirt?
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Looks like it's got a lot of starch in it.
Or else you're carrying a little contraband in there. Come here,
I thought, so the letters and pictures fran Draper was
holding over a robu, I was going to try them
over to the police for evidence.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
You were.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Lanky. Take a look at the girl on the bed.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Yeah, hey, that's friend.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
He's dead. So now I who killed her? You too, screener,
And I heard what you said is okay.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Man, he's a lie.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
You got to put no more a wrap on to
them trying.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
To say that, say, oh, they are Douglas. The way
I get it is that Fran Draper came to coach
Cate a blackmail robum. He found out that you wanted
as the bigger friend of roubles as you pretended you
and fran got together. I never saw her before, and
that's why it was so simple for her to set
up that frame up at the dunes tonight. No, you
two are partners. Can you prove that? I can try?
(22:52):
Linky Douglas hired you gotta beat Robot get the blackmail.
When he didn't he yeah, Shorge, thanks, but you and
handko ideas you double cross Douglas and fran Draper. He
took the dough for yourself, so we didn't care. Of
course you're dead, that's why you were carrying the incriminating
pictures and letters inside your shirt. A Douglas, when you
found out that I took the Draper girl away from
the dunes, who got scared. He thought he might sell
the truth about you.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
They came here, not me, sure, but.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
They didn't have murder in mine, Douglas. All they wanted
was the blackmail stuff so they could make a pitch
for another ten thousand. But you got hear ahead of them.
You must have, because you have that evidence you killed
Fran Draper. Are you mad?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Then?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
How did you know she'd been strangled when you haven't
been close enough to see her neck? Why you don't try,
A Douglas. Well, friends, that's the story. I'll be back
to wrap up the case in just a minute. I
(23:51):
sat Hill Douglas through the arms and I took him
in the two muggs down the coast that the police
headquarters and told my story to an amazed and thoroughly
riledie of police. The mugs answered a few questions and
were locked up. I went back to the hospital where
Mervyn Roebel had amazingly recovered his power of speech. No,
it's over, Granger. Yeah, most certainly is.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
We don't know how to say. Send you, mister Granger.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Say that for later. First, here is the black Man materials,
and I hope you're telling missus Roebel the whole story.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
He already has, mister Granger.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Ten thousand dollars is being held by the police department.
You're certainly getting it back since the bank seller kept
the record of the serial. Anothers. That's wonderful. And now
let's talk about you. Her fear is normal under these circumstances.
I understand. Well, I'd like to blush and say no,
but this happens to be my business. Fine, I'm glad
to see you are not affected by by false modesty.
(24:42):
I shall send you a check in the amount of
one thousand dollars. That's ten percent of what I've been
saved by you. Thank you. I won't send you the receipt,
but I will leave you one idea. What's that next time,
tell the cops for the wife, mister Granger. This will
be no next time. Fine, the wise guy. It doesn't
make the same mistake twice, Seed Granger. Again, its had
(25:08):
one of the most interesting cases in my files and
I'll have another one for you, so be around next time.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Welcome back, another solid episode. The only re all complaint
is the sound quality of the file we have is rough,
but I thought it was a good episode. While we
don't have a lot of radio detective programs from this
era circulating, the writing is of the same quality as
American TV detective shows of the same time. All right,
(25:45):
listener comments and feedback, and we have a couple of
generally positive comments on Danger with Granger. We start out
over on Spotify where Mechanics sixty six gives the episode
Hired Help a good one and regarding the first episode

Speaker 5 (27:01):
It is written to discover how oyster's taste is necessary
to open shells. This person is fool hardy enough.

To investigate there go, Yes, why's the covers.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Can't believes? Lieutenant do not believe our entering ambush? But
even the nine scotious ah detections of this bankrupt brain
correct lieutenant enemy has departed, leaving wounded behind. Time to
observe gentlemen on floor. Yeah it's spider baby, victim of bullets,

rashly invited by mister nice. Blame cannon, Jena, two bullets
on the chest. Jesus are only interested in two things.
