If You Please, Himan Brown’s Radio Mystery Theater

The same day Larry Fielding inexplicably loses his job as a reporter, he agrees to accompany a stranger to Paris in pursuit of Nazi-looted jewels. Once there, he becomes part of a dangerous intelligence plot, where no one's identity is certain — not even that of the alluring Carol Johnson. She claims to be a Sorbonne student, but might be a double agent working for the Russians — or perhaps the Americans. As Larry navigates this unfamiliar terrain, only one thing is certain: the food in Paris is good.

Movie star Richard Morgan brings his new wife, Jenny, to Bon Repos, his sprawling cliffside estate overlooking the Pacific. But from the start, Jenny feels unwelcome, haunted by the lingering presence of Richard’s first wife, the glamorous, much-mourned April Sanders.

But as their conspiracy unfolds, the lovers' plans begin to diverge — leading to consequences neither could foresee.

Fifteen years ago, while his wife lay gravely ill, George fell for his boss's beautiful daughter. Now, fifteen years later, the voices return with unsettling karmic reciprocity.
