What happens
On a foggy night in San Francisco, Hillary Gaines leaves with Mildred Hardwick, who is about to abandon her husband, Tommy Hardwick. Their car strikes a man in the fog, and they drive away without stopping to help. Mildred's husband is later found dead, and police begin looking for the hit-and-run driver. Hillary is soon approached by an insurance man named Mr. Baldwin, who seems to know what happened that night. The episode is from The Whistler, a radio series, and was first broadcast on January 14, 1946.

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.
