What happens
Lynn Cameron's young daughter Polly dies after a sudden illness, and her uncle Cam Cameron, a lawyer, finds himself uneasy about the sister-in-law he has always trusted. Cam's brother Bill had died in a similar way some time earlier. Their friend Fred and Fred's wife Maggie, a writer of mystery stories, begin to suspect poisoning, and Cam begins to doubt Lynn. The series Lux Radio Theatre presents this adaptation of the 20th Century Fox film, with Dan Daley and Dorothy McGuire in the leading roles.

Listen for: Pay attention to the hospital medicine that Polly was given the night she died, and to who handled it before it reached the bedside.
Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
