## Resource

CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents “The Trouble with Murder,” episode 147, originally broadcast on September 12, 1974. Written by Ian Martin and directed by Himan Brown, this contemporary Brooklyn crime thriller stars Robert Morse and Bryna Raeburn. As police investigate a troubling series of killings, a wealthy woman commissions an artist to paint her nude portrait. But the painter’s increasingly unsettling behavior turns a private artistic arrangement into a mounting danger. CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned and mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
