## Resource

Box 13 presents “Mexican Maze,” episode 34 of the classic mystery-adventure series, originally broadcast April 10, 1949. Alan Ladd stars as mystery novelist Dan Holiday, with Sylvia Picker as Suzy. An urgent letter and an airline ticket send Holiday to Mexico City, where he is told to wait at the Hotel Maricosa. The request for help soon draws him into a dangerous south-of-the-border mystery involving a frightened man and the threat of a murder frame-up. Written by Gene Levin and Robert Mitchell and directed by Richard Sanville. Box 13 presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
